Hi all. Have been having issues finding someone who will do tuning in Melbournes east on my 2002 1.8t beetle. Have been through the entire engine bay over the last few months fixing vacuum leaks & replacing parts and am confident it’s reliable enough for a tune now.
Only problem is I can’t find anyone who will touch it due to the age.
Most don’t respond or say they can’t while one highly renowned shop on the peninsula flat out refused to work on my car for being older than 20 years.

Does anyone have a shop they recommend?

Thanks!

I'll consider tuning, I do plenty of 1.8t. Everyone is wary of old cars because they are the unloved ones that cost time and money as soon as you touch them. Costs that you don't get back or can't charge for.
