I think I remember your original free service thread ... nice work and thanks for the heads up on which ****ty dealer it was !

Although not unexpected, not picking up on any of the 6 faults should get the staff that worked on your car to be warned.

Do you know what the 6 faults were ?

[ian]

Yes
1 Blown number plate bulb
2 low air preasure in one tyre
3 Disconected hose in engine bay
4 piece missing from wiper blade
5 he put some fault into the software
i forget the other one but they were easy identified he said
no one was picked up
he bought all the faulty parts with him

Ive just moved to the Gold Coast from Penrith .so you know who it was ,
After the report reached the dealer ,he rang and apoligised for the poor service to my car and offered me the 3rd service free ,
But as i was already moving to the Gold Coast i asked him if it could be transfered
Im afraid they were not prepared to do that as they only owe francises in NSW

Sorry Ian I assumed the bad service was done at the Gold Coast , so I apologise if anyone thinks it was the dealer who does own all the Gold Coast VW dealerships right down even to Lismore .

Hilarious.

That crap about the service interval is even funnier.

Yes they are prepared to extend the warranty if your prepared to pay for two services a year
So you are in fact paying for the extended warranty your self so instead of paying $440 a year
You'd be paying $880.
I don't think so. I hardly drive the Tiguan in 2.5 years It's only done. 15,000 km
So I'd be getting the car serviced every 3,000 km.
