This is the info I have received today from the lease company:
VW comms - Updated 18th April
Delayed scheduling of vehicles
Unconfirmed orders for some models are showing provisional build weeks. This delay is caused by a combination of the number of orders waiting to be scheduled and the planned Factory holiday. We will provide more information as it becomes available.
Supply of 2.0-litre diesel engines is becoming increasingly restricted for all models, causing delays to production. We are awaiting clarification of the scale of this issue, and will update accordingly.
Colour multifunction computer display (9Q4) has been temporarily removed from ordering.
Improved supply on parking technology
Supply of parking sensors and cameras has improved. Delayed orders will be scheduled for production at the earliest possible build week.
Delays on models fitted with DSG
Supply of DSG is restricted. This is affecting all models. The situation will not improve in the short term, please consider this when advising customers of potential lead times.
Delays on models fitted with DAB
We have been informed by the Factory of potential restrictions in the supply of DAB units. We are awaiting further clarification on the scale of this issue that will impact all models. The initial indications are that the situation will not improve in the short term. Please consider this when advising customers of potential lead times.
Golf
Extended lead times
High levels of demand on Golf mean that there are extended delivery times on these models. Every effort is being made to ensure that the oldest customer orders are scheduled into the earliest build weeks.
