Re: Reversing with PDC

Thanks Guys, I really appreciate the responses. The mirror is solved, it wasn't in the "L" position on the dial as I didn't realise it had to be. So that is working again. I find the setting on the radio for the PDC but even re-setting it to the required setting, it doesn't work. I will ha...

Reversing with PDC

Hi Guys Could anybody clarify something for me please. When engaging reverse (and obviously activating PDC) my radio used to always decrease volume automatically and the side mirrors used to dip so that the pavement could be seen. These suddenly stopped and now I wonder why. Is there a setting for b...

RATTLE FROM BOOT AREA

Hi Guys I am going crazy with a rattle coming from the rear of the cabin possibly in the boot but I have unsuccessfully tried to locate it by sitting in the rear seats when someone else drives (and holding the luggage compartment cover), and by inspection in the boot. Has anyone possibly been throug...

Re: My Deep Black Scirocco is Finally in MALTA♥[With Picture

Congratulations Nico, very cool pics of a very beautiful car. I have to agree with you on the colour, I think the Roc looks amazing in black. But then again with such amazing lines it really looks good in all the colours, but I am just biased as I still cant stop looking at my Deep Black Roc which I...

Re: DEEP BLACK ROC 2.0TSI DSG ARRIVED IN CAPE TOWN

Thanks Guys, what a car it is. I had to make a quick trip to Hermanus today on business and she drives like a dream. The scary thing is that i hadn't even seen a Roc in real life when I ordered it (let alone taken one on a test drive), so I am very relieved and happy. But my attitude was that so man...

DEEP BLACK ROC 2.0TSI DSG ARRIVED IN CAPE TOWN

Hi Guys My beautiful Deep Black Roc 2.0TSI DSG has finally arrived in South Africa and I took delivery this weekend. It arrived with all the extras I orderd (bi-xenons, pano sunroof, PDC) so I was very relieved after hearing from some others that their orders weren't correct. It was worth the wait -...

Re: MAINTENANCE PLAN VS SERVICE PLAN

Thanks The Roc, I had a long chat to a very knowledgeable guy at VWSA last week as i couldn't get the detail I wanted from my dealer in CT. After discussion with him, I feel that the full maintenance plan is probably worth the extra bucks and I am now taking the 90 000km option,which isn't too bad a...

Re: ANY ELSE WITH A DELAY IN BUILD DUE TO THE SUNROOF??

The delay you mention due to a sunroof doesn't sound right, my Roc is docking in Port Elizabeth tomorrow and was built on schedule with pano sunroof, DSG, PDC and xenons.

But then again all I hope it arrives with all the options I ordered! :-)

Re: MAINTENANCE PLAN VS SERVICE PLAN

Thanks jammyd and nicknotts for the responses, I have really enjoyed having very comprehensive maintenance plans on my last two cars (BMW and Audi) and therefore will no doubt take the full maintenance plan in fear that I will be sorry! It still seems to me that I will only really get the full benef...

MAINTENANCE PLAN VS SERVICE PLAN

Hi Guys I have been advised by my dealer that I will be getting my roc within two weeks and I need to make a decision on whether I am going with the add-on 'maintenance plan' or just keep with the VW standard service plan. I am not sure how the plans work in the UK but in South Africa we get a stand...

Re: WEEK 28 and BUILD DURATION?

Thanks Trix, but end August is 7 weeks away from (12.07 week 28) so delivery might be close to the end of August, or how long does shipping take to South Africa?

Re: WEEK 28 and BUILD DURATION?

Thanks for the reply iAmbu, I have been given a delivery date of end August (but never know how accurate that is!) so that allows for 3 weeks shipping to Cape Town as well.

Hopefully thee is no delay in the shipping. Thanks again!

WEEK 28 and BUILD DURATION?

Hi Everyone

I have been told my new Roc is scheduled for Week 28. Can anyone tell me when Week 28 starts and how long it takes to actually build and get out the factory and ready to be shipped?

Excuse me if this topic has been covered before, I am new on here. Thanks.
