VW dealer level diagnostics

[Scooby who 41]

Guys looking for help.

 

Purchased a 2019 VW Tiguan as a non starter from a car supermarket. Was told communication has been lost between key and car and that it was a non starter. Advised that hand break and steering lock could be released. Sent a guy round to collect only to find hand break and steering couldn't be deactivated. He didn't have a tilt and slide or rollers so had to return without it.

I'm told a regular lock/ key specialist cant work on it. and it needs to be VW dealer level software. Anybody know anyone with this gear, who's near enough to Warrington Cheshire who does a mobile service or do I have to bring it to VW dealership and get my pockets emptied

How are you getting on,have you lifted it yet.These days buying late non runner stuff is high risk and especially if you have been mislead ( or stitched up ). Good luck.

Got sorted mate. Know a good recovery guy in the area who picked it, and dropped it to his man who sorted it within a half hour. Wasn't told the full story from day one which confused all involved.
