    Can anyone recommend somewhere to replace/recon S3 mechatronic

    For a 2010 S3 on a DQ250 Not fussed about where, as long as it's in the UK, need a good recommendation, ideally would prefer a refurbished unit over a new unit from TPS ££££ What price did you pay, how long did they have the car, were there any issues etc? Thanks in advance
