He said that the low compression on the cylinders could account for the computer thinking the Airflow meter is at fault.

So what do you guys think? is he feeding us some grade A bs? or is it true we are likeley gonna need to falk out about £500 to have the top end rebuilt and cleaned out?
Take it some where else see what they diagnose.
