Help - Polo Specialist Sought in London missfire issue
Posted: Thu Jun 21, 2018 5:36 pm
Hi there
I need help. Can anyone recommend a good honest VW polo specialist in London. Problem my daughter's 2004 Polo 1.2 55 bhp had the engine warning light come on. I took it to my regular mechanic and his diagnostic tool showed cylinder 2 was misfiring. We check compression and it was low. So took the head off, changed the valves, skimmed the head, changed the timing belt , gaskets etc.. Now the diagnostic tool is showing misfire in cylinder 3. He has also had the ECU checked and that came back with no faults.
Even he suggested a VW main dealer, but the nearest ones to me Citygate have awful reviews. I really need an honest trustworthy specialist who can diagnose what is wrong and estimate the cost of repair so I can decide the fate of the little Polo.
Thank you
