LIMP MODE ISSUE

Featured Replies

First post in this forum, I usually hover over the Octavia Mk 111 one as I own a 2016 diesel vRS.

My sister has a 2015 1.2TSi manual Yeti which went into limp mode just before she went into hospital for a hip replacement - yes, we are of that generation! Her main dealer that supplied the car and have serviced it since she acquired it say it needs a new coil pack and ignition lead and want £800 to change it and a split track rod end rubber boot. 6 - 8 week delay before they can do the work because of parts availability. Questions are:

1, Is she being stitched up - YES.

2, Can anyone recommend a good Indie VAG workshop in the Camberley area?

i know very little about modern (after 1980s) petrol engines and when I looked on a couple of parts web sites, they were showing glow plugs in the ignition section; in a petrol engine? Loads of different coil packs that fit onto the spark plug like my BMW 740 Sport and a coil that looks a bit like a square distributor cap with four connectors sticking out, I imagine for the plug leads.

Any advice will be welcome.

Sounds a ridiculous price for Coil & Leads. Have we to assume the 4 spark plugs are good and have been inspected and not needing replaced?
