Big problems after VW Recall.

Orite team,

had the recall on the injectors seen to on the 21st August at my local VW Main Dealer.

since then the car has got noticeably worse every day,

it started smoking more than when it went in, that i can live with

but this morning it would barely start and would only spring into life with a slight press on the accelerator. and its been the same every time I've gone to start is since.

Also now it won't pull over 2500 revs, can feel the car boost nicely from 2000 revs but soon as i get close to 2500 theres fairly substantial miss fire and it basically just dies.

went to VW today to explain, they weren't really much use just made a note of it and nobody can see it until next wednesday.

not ideal because i rely on my car because i work late night shifts and am heading to essex and wimbeldon over the weekend.

Any ideas?
