Pain the arse, having to fight to get VW to admit there is a fault, especially when some are having a relatively smooth time getting the fault rectified. Good luck to those having difficulty, but hopefully the forum evidence and other, will contribute to you getting sorted.
Regarding forum member's cars, am I right in saying those affected have all been 2019 and 2020 manufactured cars (7.5 model)? Has anyone on the forum had this exact fault with a MK7 (as opposed to a 7.5)?
