as above guys just got it back from vw with a bill of 1500 quid all but a few pennys  :sick:

car now feels brillant

had a new cam
cam chain
tensioner
guide rail
pcv valve

and also a service on the dsg box new filters and oil


car feels like a new beast and is now whisper quiet and the dreaded diesel knocking now gone very happy man but lighter in the pocket
