I paid for an 'indpendent engineer' and he wrote a scathing report. Things really began to happen in my favour very quickly!
Cost me, I think, £85. Worth it. I got the £85 back with a free service! :smiley:
Good posting that one!! Will do this if I have any problems? :wink:

Steve: If you have problems, I will fish out the name of the company I used. Very good I must admit. They hate a negative report! :smiley:

Just out of interest, what did the indi engineer have to say?

Sundaydriver:  Independent? or do you meen dealer paint guy if they try to do that to my car they better call an ambulance as he will be sparked out.

I've had two run in's with vw about paintwork. The process is I go and see my local dealer, he then sends me to their bodyshop(which is 20 miles away in Northallerton. The bodyshop manager then takes photo's and emails then to VW.

About a week later you get a call from the bodyshop  asking me to take the car to the dealers for their INDEPENDANT paint guy. He's not from VW , just paid by VW to provide an independant report.

Also took my two buckets, grit guards and lambswool mitt etc with me to show the Indy specialist I don't do poor wash techniques.

Took me 2 months of writing letters and constant phone calls to reject it.

Touch wood the new White GTI seems to be a lot better.

Hi Guys , I Just got back from the dealership , erm not much luck really all they said was that the car's paint work & cleaning techinque are brilliant. The only olive branch that they offerd me was havin to take the car in and the paint gauge being checked by some machine but this means that i have take a day off work coz its in North London

I did coever it DODO SN and it does look awsome. Another chip on the bonnet now.
