Yeah, it’s a problem when travelling, they know your not coming back. I thought a large, high profile dealership would have been reasonable ‘protection’ as they would have a reputation to protect. Not so. In hindsight I think they were good at replacing parts on current models, but had no interest in ‘real’ mechanics.
That is sound advice regarding the test kit. Do you have a link for the kit, please?
