Went out to the car (8 year old petrol 3 series) just before lunch today, started it and it sounded really rough and the engine management light was flashing away merrily. I have the top RAC cover as part of my car insurance so I phoned them, they took about 45 minutes to arrive. The technician diagnosed a faulty coil and managed to find a parts supplier (Europarts) who would stay open until he called for it. It took him almost an hour to fit it and the only cost to me was £48 for the part.
I was amazed at the amount of time and effort he was prepared to put in to fix this, I was expecting to be without the car for the weekend and to drive slowly to my local garage on Monday for repairs.
Getting the car signed off as repaired seemed to be his goal. I say well done that man!
