Do you have the wheel bolt cap removal tool in your boot.

The one shown in the manual on page 285 tool number 4?

Also shown in the photo below.

I did pull it out of the holder to have a look at it and the thought for a split second did come into my mind and then thought don't be stupid as i think there probably only a quid or so anyway. I have a funny feeling this is maybe whats happened to mine  :wink: I bet the missing two weeks of my cars life after PDI were in a showroom. :wink:

Im going to email  :wink: I just wanted to check today and with others it still comes with one.

I still wonder about the GTI badged manual holder as mines just a VW one.

I may also ask were my car has been from March the 8th(when they PDIed it) to the 26th (When they said they could register it) :sad:

That missing time is why i keep asking stupid paint questions.

As in that time span of 18 days i keep thinking maybe it had something done to it, new wing. paint. whatever.  :huh:

Hmmm... I wonder if thats why mine has been 'awaiting shipment' for over 2 weeks now!?  Pranged it coming off the transporter, and then want to get it fixed before telling me its here?!  My salesman knows as soon as I know its there I'll be going up for a look!!
