Codes I finally got from them: P2015 and P2BA6. They will either replace motor (intake) or whole part for $299 plus labor. So they really won't do the cheap fix so I am bringing it to someone else who knows about that. They are clearly trying to make money off me. They want to sell me the NOX...
That's interesting... You are probably right but I just assumed they were better with men. I research everything, have even watched the videos on how to replace a DPF, easy fix for intake, etc., and I told them that!
You are so helpful! And they weren't happy about the easy fix on the intake manifold either. They also told me that both aux fans need to be replaced. In speaking with my other mechanic he said that rarely do they both go at once. This is the issue here in MA. It is very difficult to find an...
I've asked them twice, and left a VM. They gave me a list of issues but nothing to back it up. Even said that the cat converter may need to be replaced. I think they are just looking for more work! I'm bringing it to a local guy I've used before who also mentioned that inexpensive fix. I spent...
Is it typical for a mechanic NOT to give you a printout of the scan with codes? I’ve asked a couple of the mechanics for this and they don’t respond. They just write the work that needs to be done which is why I don’t trust them. I’m wondering if they give them to guys? Thanks.
Thanks! I meant bracket. I actually read about that and suggested it to the DPF mechanic and he said he doesn't use it. I read about it on Dieselgeek. The other guy that I am taking it too mentioned this so if it's that, it would save me a lot of money. Thanks for your response! I have a 2014...
Does this make sense? The mechanic told me that the intake manifold may need to be replaced. My car is running a better, although it wasn't running bad before. I saw my DPF and it was loaded with soot. I'm having someone else look at it. He told me that it could just be a gasket and not the...
Is it best to just replace it? If I replace it, what are the chances that I could have the same problem and after how many miles? This one came at about 100K. Thanks.
I've had several mechanics do a scan and I believe that that code did come up once. Is it odd that the dealer and another mechanic never gave me a printout of the scans? I'm asking them for them. Here is what I think. I think two of them just tried to do a software regen while the third...
I am not a mechanic and a woman. How expensive is it to replace the filter part/labor or is it worth it to try cleaning it? Once cleaned, is it likely to fail again? Better to just replace it?
I live in the Boston area and need a really good VW diesel mechanic preferably on the North Shore. I brought my car to the dealer and they attempted a forced regen which didn't do anything. Then I brought it to a mechanic who is pressure cleaning the filter without removing it. I have to drive...
