So the clockspring on my B7 2011 Diesel decided to stop working.

Spoken to VW dealer and they have informed me that the VW recall for this doesn’t apply in Australia.

They cannot tell me how much it will cost as they need to connect the ODB tool which they will charge $90.

Ballpark figure for clockspring part is $800 and additional $180 for installation.

So my question is - is that price reasonable? Does anyone know of a dealer that would be willing to do this as part of warranty? (I’m surprise that AUS wouldn’t do this as a recall since other countries have)

Any suggestions are welcome!

Thanks
