Scirocco Central

Just had issue one.

Sorted. God was that annoying, a metallic rattle from the boot area.

I'm hoping Thule will bring out some feet soon so I can reuse what I have had from previous vehicles.

Bike goes in the back with the front wheel off no problems, but any more than one and it's tight. Tri season is nearly over now, so I can wait until next May.

Mine now fixed too. No new control unit, but a recoding done.

Now a lot lot happier!

Cheers guys

Hopefully ill get a reason too!

Bloody brilliant...... fantastic.


Now I need to know what was wrong!

.... Gareth... here's crossing the fingers you get resolution today.

Something about it being under warranty and needing to see the problem first. It is normal practice in a lot of dealerships. If VW do not agree, the cost falls onto the garage so they: 1. - Need to verify there is a problem. 2. - Agree with VW they can claim warranty costs. 3. - Then order the corr...

60 plate. Picked up Wednesday. I suggest they have a manufacturing defect. Or a rogue operator. I've booked my car into VW Derby on Friday. Called them to order the unit in advance. They'll get back to me to see if they can do this. Something about it being under warranty and needing to see the prob...

Snap - all function on steering wheel gone.

It's a fault. An a fault is a defect. I'm a manufacturing man and these things come back and bite.

Yep... 6 hours old... Multi function steering wheel completely unresponsive, cruise control unresponsive, horn unresponsive...gutted cant play with the VIS now Ah 4 days old - same problem. Wonder if they're the same batch. Mine's going in on Friday. Do you know what the issue with yours is / was? ...

Thanks guys.

Seems a bit miserly though!

I know it seems petty. The warnng triangle and the first aid kit didn't appear in my new car I picked up Wednesday. I called the dealer and said it must have been an oversight. Yet, he claims these are options in the UK and are not part of the standard kit?

Is this right?

Ordered first week in May, build date 17th of July....

At last a blinking build date! Yeee hah.

Might wait two weeks longer to take delivery and get new plate at start of September.

Still no build date

But at least the dealer is keeping me posted every fortnight now to stop be bothering him.

OK he's going to send me a screen dump from the VW system. With comm number and projected build date.

I'll be happy when I see that.

Thanks for your help.

OK thanks Trix... not sure what pertinent questions to ask..... is it err being built? errr when? It just seems odd, handed over the deposit, received one email and that's been about it!

I ordered a month ago - still no build date. Is this normal?
