Ask them for proof it was serviced. Maybe the VW app hasn't updated but more likely service not done.

Ask to see the paperwork that should have been completed and also check your service book. Is it stamped? If not I'd be asking questions and maybe contacting VW UK too.

Bet they f**ked up resetting service intervals. Most garages that don't have VW specific gear can't do it properly.

Since they took over Advantage/Inch VW in Stirling and Inch in Bathgate the nearest alternative is probably Western at Newbridge. AC seem to pretty much be leaving VW owners with not much option. :sad:

You'd be nearer to Cameron VW Perth.Although i don't know if they are any good.Also an AC in Wishaw.
Yeah,the Arnold Clark monster just seems to eat up everything in sight.
