BridLupo Posted January 30, 2007 Report Share Posted January 30, 2007 That is dick turnpin in disguise. You should have gone to a regular auto electrician instead of VW. Would have been under £100 then. Cost would have been the labour to find the problem Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
