Seeking Repair Shop Reference
Hi all:
So I have a '04 TT sitting in San Diego, CA that needs a little TLC.
The Ask:
I'm hoping someone out here could recommend someone in San Diego that could help me get TT back up and running - either onsite or in a shop I would have it towed to. I could take it to the dealer, but I'd rather avoid that if I can.
The Symptoms:
The starter turns the engine over and it coughs and sputters a few times like it's about to start then it dies off. Over and over and never successfully starts completely.
The Background:
- TT has been sitting unmoved for the last probably 6+ months (I know, I know..but this was beyond my control unfortunately)
- The driveway it's on has a slightly more than average upwards angle.
- Gas tank is (I believe) about 1/2 full or so.
- No prior history of engine problems or allergies.
It could be any number of things but I can't really address it directly. I live out of the country and am coming back in December. TT is at my home there where my parents babysit it - albeit it clearly not well
Anyway, my goal is to find someone trustworthy to come to the car or I could have it taken taken to a shop where it can be sorted out.
Anyone any thoughts? Much appreciated.

Pure Motosport - highly recommend
Hi all:
Just following up with anyone that reads this - I ended up taking it to a Pure Motorsport in Miramar.
It's not possible for me to recommend these guys enough - really great service. I live in Europe and they were very communicative and went the extra mile to take care to not call me in the middle of the night here when they did need to call.
