They said the retrofit of Discover Pro into a CMS-equipped car isn't easy owing to the car's computer system, something to do with it wiping itself everytime it's plugged in for diagnostics.

Reason it wasn't picked up on the PDI is that the order system used to check the car matches the order looks at the factory order placed, not the order in their CRM, meaning the PDI guys see it as being correct because of where the mistake was made. Frustrating but it's clear they're not covering up, just a genuine mistake in a very critical part of the order process!

being leant a brand new diesel Jetta to tide me over until my replacement car arrives (probably going to be BW22/23 at this rate).

Yeah I asked but the sales manager said he'd rather offer me this - if it means I get leverage to get some FoC additional extras, I'm game.

Blimey Jake, that's terrible! Was it only the sat nav or were there other things aswell??

I only ask as my dealer told me they can retorofit sat nav at the dealers.  Would it be worth pushing for this and a massive discount to save the wait of a new car?

They said that there's an issue with retrofitting the nav where it wouldn't behave properly long term with the car's computer - and to be honest I'm the kind of guy that prefers 'factory fresh' so I'm happy to wait - I get two-three months without paying car finance and I'm going to get some FoC extras, so it's not like there isn't an upside. I'm remaining relaxed about it, as much as I want the car, because I'd rather get it perfect second time than bodge the first attempt. Or at least that's how I see it  :smiley:

Really sorry to hear that, hopefully they'll pull out all the stops to get your replacement.

Saw a Limestone R driving along the Eastern Rd in Portsmouth at around 13:45.  Plate ended in LTX I think.  Is that yours?
