trotter Posted August 10, 2008 Share Posted August 10, 2008 I'd imagine that you'll get stung for garage labour rates which is normally ?50-60/hr. On top of that any bits you need. Did he say what exactly it was? I assume by circuit he thinks its an electrical fault? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Westcliff Posted August 10, 2008 Share Posted August 10, 2008 What car have you got? What are the symptoms? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Takis Posted August 10, 2008 Author Share Posted August 10, 2008 What car have you got? What are the symptoms? it's a peugeot 206 , it's toiling to accelerate anything above 2nd gear and it splutters and shudders and the wee orange engine shaped light comes on the dashboard , this might seem stupid but ... could it have anything to do with the weather as it seems worse when the heavy rain is on ?
