Have you had the codes read/do you have VCDS/Vagcom?

If not, I notice you're in Durham, so I could probably help out with that.

I don't charge, I don't do this to make money, spannering's a hobby for me - I'm just a very well equipped hobbyist :)

Sadly Crook's a little out of the way for me at present though, I was hoping you might be nearer to Durham. I could probably get over some time next week but that's probably not much help to you is it?
