I'm less than a mile away today with work, but sadly not in the car and hence no VCDS with me

If you don't get a quick diagnosis I'll likely be down again in the coming weeks and months!

That's 80-odd miles from me, unfortunately. Not sure if there's anyone around that way now? Neil may be closest in Swindon!

Does the car drive or is it off the road?
looks like its Newbury, which I do go past, but normally I'm either going to pick people up or drop them off in London or the Airports!
How urgent is it Roberto?

Is that not a warranty problem for the dealer to sort?
