this is timely,,,
been having shit with vw,,as we are selling my wifes mk5 r32 and I found out that although the car has a full main dealer vw service history they neglected to service the haldex 4wheel drive system at 40k miles!!,,
i only become aware of this when I was checking things for the next owner and "did my bollocks" when I found out they hadn't carried out this critical piece of work,,,,
there attitude was even worse with " sorry mate,,,we don't see many of them being a limited edition and its easy to forget they are 4 wheel drive",,i said thats not good enough and will vw pay the ££££k if it needs replacing,,,,of course not,,,,
so no more vw and wife will get a mint ford fiesta st with all the bits,,,,,forgot to say,,the buyer of our car pulled out when he found out haldex service was neglected even though I explained I will get it done asap [haldex service carried yesterday],,cash was "burning a hole in his pocket" and he bought another one instead of waiting for ours,,,good luck to the chap but ours is a lovely car and will go pretty quickly,,,,,feck vw though,,,,s2
