    f,ing car traders !!! rant lol

    got the wife a passat tdi 130 last week and on the way home from the car pitch noticed if had been chipped (ecu re-maped) anyway thought l would see wont it was like on diesel and it was crap , put it on the ramp and the turbo is leaking oil ..

    anyway took it back monday and with a list of the faults and a picture of the leak .
    they took it into the vw agent and today phoned me to says l was right it has been modded and they agent cant rewite it , even when l told then they cant , then they said the turbo is ok , .

    l asked them if they where looking at the picture of the oil and they said l cant understand how they missed that ,,

    l can because l bet they never told them ..

    anyway just phone them back and told them where to stick the car as its not the car l want because it now has history because of the mod ..

    luckerly l had a copy of the ad and in that it says "standard car"

    l told her and her pratts on the forecourt l was in the trade and they still messed me about '

    shame because the car was mint too , but l have no idea who or how long its been chipped ? might of been driven by a knob for years

                          i was always told good things at VW garages and customer services. Obviously not the best. Surely there is some law you pick them up on as it was advertised as standard.
                          "Imagine i have a blaster ray in my hand"
                          "But you do have a blaster ray in your hand"
                          "Well you wont have to test your imagination to much then"
