Mechanic 2007 Audi A4 2.0

[wcrstereo]

Looking for a good mechanic in the Norfolk area on 2nd engine and still having issues. looking for recommendations before taking it to the dealership

[Theiceman]

out of curiosity what are the issues ?

at the rates dealers charge i think anyone would be crazy to take a b7 to the dealer. im at the dealer fairly often and i have NEVER seen a b7 in there .. a few hours and you could have replaced the car :)

[wcrstereo]

I have like 6 codes. We have already replaced the engine and still have a few issues. The codes are P1297/ P0332/06231-001/ P3138/P0016/ P0101

Have you cleared codes since the engine swap? If not clear and run to see what codes come back. P0016 is most concerning and needs to be addressed first. Others could be inter-related and could be tackled one at a time once P0016 is dealt with. Ross tech Wiki is your friend

Well I went to Audi and they told me I need a new engine and had a few missing bolts. Then in the same breth asked if I wanted to sell the car. Ohh my bill to get this all done was 10k

You may not need a new mechanic but just some diagnostic help. Codes are good but cars will throw all kinds of codes for something irrelevant to a source issue.

If I may ask, symptoms? If you are just looking for a shout out for someone local then ignore me :)
