I think that's their belief, yes. My worry is if they once again "fix" it, this time by bypassing the affected wire, and it still has a fault not sure where we would stand in getting a refund. Also means he'd still be without a car.

I'm in Lancashire. They may have covered themselves with the ECU as my dad at the time made a point of saying well what if you replace the ECU and it doesn't fix it, their response was just we will come to some arrangement. They have come back to him today saying that they will instead of replacing the wiring loom they will bypass what they believe to be the affected wire. All sounds very fishy to me.

Dad has recently had some major issues with his Skoda. Came in the form of multiple errors flagging upon hitting the ignition. After 3 hours of diagnosis, it was determined to be a ECU fault by the Skoda dealership and after a very costly repair (somewhere in the region of £1500) the ECU was replaced. The very next day the faults came back however and now it has been further diagnosed by the dealership. They now believe it to be a break in the wiring loom, for which they have quoted us ~£5000 to replace. I want to believe this is an accurate quote but worried my dad might be getting hoodwinked.
