Hi everyone,
I've just had my car serviced and I have been given a list of things that are wrong and need sorting out. Please could someone let me know if they are indeed essential and if so, where can I go to get them fixed at a reasonable cost. I've had an Audi dealership rip me off for over £2000 because they took the car apart, discovered a problem with the steering column, couldn't put the car back together so I had no choice but to have it fixed there.
OK, here's the list:
As for the nearside front wheel, I know there is a problem with that. I have to fill the tyre every 2 weeks (it reaches 7 or 8 PSI when it should be 30). However, I have that tyre replaced 3 times in 18 months and the slow leak keeps happening regardless of what tyre I get or what garage I go to.
I'm sorry for the long winded rant but I am so sick of getting ripped off because I don't know a great deal about cars. I don't have the money to throw away!! Any advise would be greatly appreciated.
Engine flush and fuel treatment
