Charitable Diagnostics

Post by Turbo Joe » Tue Jun 28, 2005 12:31 pm

Is there anyone living in the London area or very near to London who has a diagnostic system and would be kind enough to run a diagnostic on my poor S4 which is performing sluggishly at the moment. The thought of handing £35 plus to a specialist center or £106 to Audi for 5 minutes work is a gut renching feeling I don't want to go through.

I think your Audi Centre will do an FOC assessment for you, which is fault code read and a quick test drive / look around.

Worth asking.

Yeah but they still have to hook it up to diagnose the fault accurately. I've done what you've said before and it's always gone down the diagnostic road. Anyone with a VAG-COM willing to help a fellow Audi owner out?
