well initially he was hemming and hawing over it,but I kept insisting it be fixed, so he finally agreed to fix it, gotta take it in to have an estimate dont, Audi dealer said it may not need complete replacement, maybe just handle, so no word on cost yet

Default What part of the test involves touching the fuel cap?

They don't do that here in WA.

Sorry they messed up your baby!

Default Pressure test the fuel system.

Looking for leaks at the gas cap.

When I went for my emissions test here in MD they did not have the right adapter for the gas cap. Just skipped it and scanned for codes.

All done, including payment, less than 4 mins.

Default Yeah, they must do that here. I know they hook the computer up to the ODB socket but...

I thought they were only doing it to track RPMs.
