Title: Bristol TFSI Specialists
Post by: stacy2704 on March 04, 2017, 09:27:28 am

Hi guys, can anyone recommend a garage in Bristol that is good at diagnosing problems with these engines. I have a boost issue and I don't fancy changing half the car attempting to find it, so figure an expert is my best bet befor i get to the point of getting shot of the car. Thanks.

Not far from Bristol - Midsomer Norton - https://www.mcmgarage.co.uk/

Have used them for my Audi (when they first setup shop) and more recently for my MK5 GTI. Always been spot on for me, decent prices and good honest guys to deal with.

ill have to give them a call, thanks. Tried a Rev D and a Rev G and its the same with both, like the diverter just opens on full throttle in 3rd gear and up. doing my head in   :sad1:
