Hi all,
My wife was returning home from the school run yesterday when the car practically died on her.
It wouldn't rev above 1500rpm and she has to limp home on main roads at about 10mph - scary by all accounts!
I've had green flag out to see it this morning and they reckon it's the turbo, so it's been loaded up and taken down to Autotechnik at Rosyth, a local VAG specialist (who, admittedly, I know nothing about).
Does anyone have any idea of how much it might cost to repair? It's also due it's annual (10,000 mile) service, and the timing belt was due to be replaced, so I'm hoping to keep costs as low as possible!
Thanks in advance!
