OK, here we go, the long awaited part number.

From VW Paderborn, Germany, the part which is screwed onto the brake calipers has the part number 1K0698998.

You should be able to contact your local dealers, quote this number and get it fixed on. So far, it works with mine, so good luck to you all.

Excellent stuff Micalee, thanks very much for your efforts.

My pleasure - it was tough going, especially with the language barrier and good old 'sods law' when the test driver is out testing it!
