Title: beware brain dead mokey works at huddersfield vw
Post by: bmx on 02 September 2007, 14:45
took my edition 30 in for the oil filler cap replacing, and asked them to fix a rattle in the door. they fitted a new cap and fixed the rattle in the door, and also fixed a rattle near the radio for me they said. after realising that they had been for a 7 mile drive in my car to hear this rattle i then noticed the workmanship. all hell was let loose  :angry:

No way, what a load of cr*p. I'd be asking to see the brand manager to see when he would be lending you his ED30 while they replace your trim.

I had two sets of alloys on different cars damaged there. They did repair them, but thats not the point when I take care of my car. Lets just say I now go else where.   :angry:

That is truely shocking BMX. :shocked:

It is definitely going to cost them a pretty penny to replace. Also ensure that the numpty who carried out the work comes and apologises personally - then kick him straight in the nuts  :evil:

My car has been in for the USB connection a few times (5 times so far), this is still ongoing with VW UK  :angry: . It has also had a new seat cover fitted. The leather had worn a little. I must admit that the dealer did it very promptly with no agrument. (Which they should.)

I have a colleague who has a passat. He took it to a Rotherham VW dealer complaining that the leather was wearing on the bolster. He had had the car from new for just over 6 months,they wouldn't change it at all, said it was wear and tear and that you can't claim, on warrenty, for the leather after six months  :shocked: :sick: Lets just say that he won't be buying a VW next time.  :cry:

Some people are just so clueless aren't they?  I mean, as if you aren't going to notice a big fecking gouge out of your radio/dash.  What a tw@t.  :rolleyes:

Hope you get it fixed mate.

know how you feel; my car went in for a new regulator and came back with a damaged interior handle which my girlfriend nearly cut herself on!! and you couldn't open the door from the inside!! Majorly cheesed off!

Hope you get it sorted :afro: i found that showing them the pics and threatning to have a standup arguement in front of a busy dealership meant my problem was sorted swiftly  :grin: :grin:

Shocking that fella.  The individual responsible should be brought to task by the dealership.

That is shocking, and a "testicles nailed to a tree" grade of offence!  :angry:

What really amazes me, it looks as though he was trying to pry out the head unit, which are actually bolted in place.

Trouble is, these days, people don't give a care in the world for other peoples property - when I was spannering, I'd treat my customers cars as though they were my own.

Bas*ards .......sorry glad that you have got yours sorted out. :smiley:
I have had my car in on five occassions ( they have had it a week at one stretch and a couple of days another time) as my USB connection has been taking the P*ss since mark. VW UK don't know what to do. They even sent a copy of my files from the USB drive to Milton Keynes so that they could analise the MP3 files.
They have replaced the usb connection, the cable and the head unit. I told them as its been in so often can they change the head unit to an 08 spec. oooohh no gotta change like for like when its a warrenty claim...... Gits. Should have got the I-Pod connection instead.

Mind you I don't own an I-Pod. :laugh:

Mind you getting very P*ssed off with the situation now.

WHAT WOULD YOU GUYS DO yes I know I'm shouting advice please  :angry:

Sorry to hear that.

If they don't get it sorted this time I would seriously ask for the Money you spent on the USB option back. Then I would change the brand new head unit for an aftermarket one that does work. Sell the OEM HU on fleabay and it shouldn't have cost you much to exchange AND you will have a better set-up :smiley:

This is all assuming that you want an aftermarket set-up :undecided:

Post by: TagnuT on 19 September 2007, 20:58
Been in today. Discussed why they couldn't swap it for an 08 model HU > Warrenty claim so like for like.

They reinstalled my music onto my USB stick ( the doctored version from VW UK  head office). Lo and behold there was only one folder showing on the display. It only contained one Chemical Brothers and a Killers CD. All the other files, folders and albums had gone.
The technician will call M Keynes in the morning.

To be fare the technician himself has been really good. I just want to get it sorted.

I still have all the music as I have the CDs. I think what VW are trying to prove is that ripping the CDs using Windows Media player V11 is causing a problem. They are saying that WM Player has included the album art with the music files and this maybe causing a problem.
