Best Volkswagen mechanic in Limerick?

DOBBER112

My Passat is running like a pig (P0300 code) and needs some TLC. Anybody know who is the best VW mechanic in Limerick?

Bump.

I'm interested in this also, even recommendations by PM.

Anybody got any info? Not interested in going to the main dealer as its a total ripoff

I'd recommend Seamus Mcgrath so, operates out of 12 Sexton street

go to Crossroad motors off the Ballysimon road, they have worked on my VW over the years, have full diagnostics and excellent mechanics, very trustworthy and all my family and work mates use them, very flexible

+1 for Crossroad Motors, Brendan has been fixing my cars and OH's vans for the past 8/9 years. Could not recommend them more highly. He is a magician the way he has pull me out of problems over the years.

Ended up giving the car to Aidan Frahill he's still working on it, doesn't seem to be a straight forward fix...FML

Yeah I watched this video a few weeks back, some great info in it but so far Aidan is still working on the car. He has checked all the common problems such as plugs, coils, connections and still the problem exists. He has so far narrowed it down to injectors or ECU. Please God don't let it be the ECU. The part alone is €1,000 :eek:

You havent seen the potential cost of modern diesel injectors yet I take it...
Great machines tho, much less nasty CO2.

sounds like something i had on a passat(b5.5 pd130), turned out to be the injector harness

Turned out to be a faulty injector, car is running perfect since replacement part was fitted. Thanks to Aidan Frahill :-)

The rest were grand so. Not too bad. How much for the part out of interest?

€230 from Frank Hogans

There is a Polish mechanic out in O'Briens Bridge who works with VW's..his name eludes me but i know he is supposed to be very good.
