Yeah I've been to them. They fitted my diverter valve and some sparkies. Seem pretty good.

I agree, did my clutch and flywheel for £630 12 months ago. Half what the dealers wanted

Not used them for anything Mk5 but Jody did a lot of work on my old Mk2 valver a few years back.  I always got the feeling he could've done with a few more staff as he always seemed to running round like a blue bottomed fly.

The beast was given a clean bill of health today. Had a full service and a DSG service at Midland VW. Car is driving better I feel. Smoother. Great lads there.  :happy2:

Gave them another chance today, fitted my new front lower bushes, sorted out the grinding noise, and Jodie has deactivated the airbag light/warning on the dash without having to fit a home made loom.  :happy2:

To be completely honest I have NO idea, got his VCDS out, and 5 minutes later he had the light off.
Made up for my bad experience, and definately a manager who cares (when he isn't biking!  :grin:)
And he tried to buy my seats off me to go in his MK6 R (£3100 from the dealers  :confused:)
