Post by shropshirevanman »

Hi,

Got a diesel engine problem!
does anyone know a decent VW specialist in Shrops?
I was recomended CJ Autos in shrewsbury but cant find any trace on the web?

Had the RAC out this morning and the timimg/set up is out,struggling to start, black smoke coming out the back with a knocking noise????

RAC chap said he thinks no major damage has been done but dont drive it
any help on garages etc would be great
cheers

Avoid Frank Conde, Hengoed, Oswestry...

A very expensive mistake a few years ago there for me. (£600 for a stripped bolt!) Same job needed doing 6 months later cos he made a bodge of it, took me 2 hours and 50p's worth of parts.

On the plus side I now do all my own mechanicing and its saved me hundreds, might even have made the 600 back by now :D
