...beginning problems with brakes, water pump, oil pump and a bad PCV valve...I had been to an Audi dealer weeks before the Reflex Tuning inspection and none of these future problems were identified. I recommend Reflex Tuning to anyone who loves their car and wants to keep it long term. I invested in my 10+ year old Audi by moving from a dealer to Reflex Tuning. I am glad I did. I feel the car was at an inflection point. With a Reflex Tuning inspection I was able to see in pictures and videos, beginning problems with brakes, water pump, oil pump and a bad PCV valve possibly affecting both spark plugs and oil and then address these problems before they caused more expensive problems. I had been to an Audi dealer weeks before the Reflex Tuning inspection and none of these future problems were identified. I can only think that the dealer is only interested in today's problems not future ones.
