If all they're doing is cleaning the intake I could fly up there and do the same thing for less :-) Seriously though, even if they are cleaning the entire...
It is a necessary evil in the TDI, but I had a local European shop do it for around $350. My local dealer told me they no longer clean it on site, but have it...
