thats a great idea! perhaps we should pull together a proforma and we could all use?  :laugh: :laugh:

seems they just dont care with your possessions when you take it into the garage...its not just GTIs btw, my mate has a Golf plus...they removed his oem stereo and left 4 screwdriver dents in his dash!!! gave it back with dings in rear quarter...

he went to town with the lazy btards....he got it all fixed...and more... :evil:

that was with Verve, Glasgow btw...just for the record.

Let the fun begin........Red Gti, full colour coding, DSG, Xenons, Winter pack, Lux pack, Highline, Sat Nav, Sunroof, Leather, Milltek, ABT rear valance, Goodyear F1 Asymmetrics....pescaras :-)

How'd you get on Steve?  :huh:

Well took the car in , and typical my luck, the service manager wasnt in at 8am but the Girl who is one of the service desk girls(as per usual the Rather nice looking one) had a look and she said" i will get that sorted and didnt even quibble about my claims.Their Paintshop were gonna have a look at the chip and their Company that do theeir alloys would make an assessment of the alloy.

What i did say though is i want to pick my car up when its daylight so i can inspect the car before i drive off , not like the other day where it was getting dark and didnt spot it.

So sat here waiting for a phonecall which i know i wont get, she said, if you dont hear from me assume their are not problems and that she should be ready by 4pm today.

So courtasy car today is an 08 VW jetta  :sick:, (preffered mondays Tiguan Sport) which the wife hasnt stop yapping about!! :sad:

ok, just had a phonecall, they have "repaired" the alloy but wont except liability for the Paint chip as they reckon that the wiper arm couldnt of made contact with that part of the bonnet. They even said that the engineer didnt even do or admit to the alloy wheel damage. He reckons that the damage must of been already done. Even though i washed the alloys 1 hour prior to handing the car over!!.

But as a "good will Gesture" they have repaird'd just the alloy.  Going to go get it now. :angry:

....Not necessarily. They are probably genuinely convinced that they didn't do any damage. It's good that in spite of that, they did a gesture of goodwill on the alloy. If it's clear that the wiper arm couldn't physically make contact, then who is right?

Man, if the car goes into the dealership without the scrape on the bonnet and comes out with a scrape on the bonnet, does it stand to reason that the scrape occured whilst in the care of the garage?

The scrape could have been made by another means apart from the wiper blade arm, could it not?

Jsut guessing based on the current information supplied.
