Golf mk8 / Re: What have you done to your mk8 today?
« Last post by davo245 on 27 August 2024, 10:33 »
Not exactly what I've done today, but have just completed a 2,344 drive around France, Belgium, Switzerland and Italy in the last two weeks.  Clubby has behaved imacculately despite needing to go to dealers tomorrow for a service and to resolve the 'gear selector error' which has been showing up for about a month.   

Only thing is that it has developed noticeable squeaks when turning at low speeds......something else that the dealer will be asked to look at.

Gear  selector error will be a new selector switch that's what mine was.

Golf mk7 / Re: VW All-In Service plan - special offer.
« Last post by karlos on 26 August 2024, 23:35 »
I've had £3K of warranty work done under the All-In plan so it has more than paid for itself. Even if I hadn't had the work done, for the £30/month I paid it was still great value.

Unfortunately I've only got a couple of months left on it and I can't renew because my car is now over 6 years old.

I come to the end of my All In Plan next March when car reached 6th anniversary. I plan to keep the car for at least 2 further years and wonder if VWs pricing increases as the car gets older and possibly more likely to incur breakdown and warranty costs. Anyone got experience of pricing vs age or indeed mileage?

Under the All In product, vehicle age and mileage are two of the eligibility criteria (see below). However, isn’t the price for the All In product the same for all vehicles, provided they meet the eligibility criteria for cover?

All-in has been designed for vehicles that:
- Are between 3 and 6 years old at point of activation
- Are a Volkswagen with an engine size of 2.0L or less
- Have done under 100,000 miles at point of activation
- Don’t have a service plan already in place

However, under VW’s stand alone Extended Warranty product I would be surprised if age and mileage aren’t factors that influence the price charged.

Personally I think the All On is decent value.  I’m a cautious goat, like to have a warranty in place when owning a car that can give large bills if a DSG Box or EA888 engine starts to misbehave. As long as you’re ok with your local VW Service facility ofcourse.

Warranty + Services + MOTs + Breakdown for £37.50 per month…..
Why does £1.24 per day sound better?

I’m now on on my second All-In plan. Got the first at £25 per month and current at £30 so happy chappy.  I’d still get it at £37,50, but I suppose it’s how you are with risk taking😬

Removed the arch liners from the front, cleaned dried and sprayed with Bilt Hamber Dynax UC. Nothing worthy to note other than dirt build up where the foam block was located.





Foam blocks removed to prevent rust,  they both had dirt and grit on the ends  (the part that sits against the wing) so will likely cause rust long term.
