Re: Roc going and Golf R coming [emoji6]

Sorry, I answered my own question. Thought it was something more Scirocco-related that I'd missed.

All the Roc's across the range have been discounted by £3k, a sure sign they are going. I suspect they may disappear before end of year. It may well happen when the new T Roc appears, although not a replacement obviously it may be a case of x amount of model types availabile and once the TRoc appea...

Re: 2010 2.0 TFSI needs a new engine

YAY I finally got my girl back today, three weeks after problems began.

In the end, the total I paid was £4,108. This included a new clutch & flywheel.

The only trouble I'm going to have now is running the new engine in. It felt a lot easier when she was brand new!

Re: 2010 2.0 TFSI needs a new engine

Thanks bernie. Agreed, I think the VW customer care guy was gutted to keep calling me back with no news... and then no new offer. If I go the small claims-style route, I'll probably go ahead with getting them to start fix it. I'm going to speak to the dealer today and see if there are any other opti...

Re: 2010 2.0 TFSI needs a new engine

Hi all, Update for you. Following on from the original, I contacted VW customer service directly about it. The dealer gave me the phone number and case reference number. There was a particular guy at VW handling it, so it was nice to be talking to "someone" rather than a call centre. I com...

2010 2.0 TFSI needs a new engine

Hi guys, I love my 'Roc in Viper Green. First car I've ever loved and first car I've had from new. She's never let me down and, a hair over five years on, she still makes me smile :) ... Until now ;) Thursday night I made a short (20 minute) journey home. Noticed nothing unusual. Friday morning, I s...
