Thanks

Thanks for the great reply.

Any idea on cost if I have to start replacing parts

Are the symptoms anything like those in the thread below?

Yep that's exactly like mine.

Bugger.

Don't know what to do now.

I don't have the skill, space or time to do that myself.

I also don't have the money to get a garage to do it as I'm due a major service and cambelt change at any time

I will not even be able to sell it or trade it in and it will be worth sod all as spares or repairs

I'm not as mechanically minded as some of you guys, but I had the same sort of symptoms with the Golf. Rough idle problems and it would not accelerate below 2000rpm...the revs would creep up to that level and then it would take off like a thing thats very quick. I could give you war and peace on how I've got to where I am now. Had a brand new turbo fitted 2 days ago at a cost of £1200. All good so far...touch wood...

Well its booked in for tomorrow at a main dealer.

Its having a major service cambelt change after the fault code is checked out.

So I'm going to be bent over for a large amount of money no doubt.

I will update with what happens
