Post by: 56OctyVRS on February 06, 2012, 08:49:34 am: On a K03 it takes about 30 mins. It takes longer to jack the car and remove the undertray than it does to fit it. The cost of the unit will be about £50 plus labour costs.

No bother. I'm not going to bother listing it as it nice to have a spare.

This is a Vw dealer. Id probably be walking away at this point! There are plenty of capable dealers but also some horror stories!

Sadly almost all service desk monkeys are like this.

Back when I had my S2000 I called up to book it in for it's service, at a Honda dealer, and was asked if it was a petrol or a diesel :stupid:

Post by: Upperoilcan on February 06, 2012, 11:27:54 am: Yes it just goes to show you the caliber of the staff,but you would really hope that these Stealers educate their staff a little more,one things not knowing what the part does but to not even know a model of the best selling car (VW Golf)is just beyond me...

And he had better not ask me wether my GTI is a petrol or a diesel... :signLOL:
