Hi guys. Can anyone recommend a VW specialist near the East London area to fix a 3l V6 Phaeton with possible DPF issues? The car has the exhuast light on as well as the coil light and jerks while trying to drive it, so I really don't want have to travel far if I can avoid it, but need it fixed ASAP. Thanks.

I've tried that and sadly from the few I found most didn't even know what a Phaeton was and the rest said "that's a main dealer job mate".

In the end I had it towed to the Russell Automotive Centre in Kingsbury, who have said it needs a new DPF.

Now the cost of replacing it is horrendous so the next question is does anyone know a company who can sort out the ECU if I have it removed completely and replaced with some pipework instead?
