Looks good! Did you manage to get a better deal, or did you just pay the current drive away price?

Looking for a pair of R32 MK5 tail lights if anyone has any.
Located in Hobart, TAS. Will organise postage!
Please PM.

Can I ask how long it takes to come up to temperature (90 degrees)?

We have two Mk6 2.0 TDIs in the family. One has 120K takes 15-20 mins of outer urban driving to come up to temperature.

The...

Late to this thread - but Andrew Robinson. Cannot recommend him highly enough.

Looking for a set of detroit wheels in reasonable condition.
Located in TAS, but will organise all freight from my end.

if anyone has a set laying about, let me know!

Hi guys, I've done a fair bit of research but haven't come across a definite answer.

I'm looking at replacing my RCD310 with a RCD510, and was looking at a cheaper Delphi unit.

I've read...

This is an ancient thread, but thought I'd chime in for any other Hobart based people.

Andrew Robinson is hands down the best VW mechanic in Hobart you could take your car to.
He's a one man...

Wondering if anyone can help - I'd like to be armed with as much info as possible before approaching the dealership.
I'm considering a new 90tsi DSG golf and have noticed the price is currently...

Not happy at all. :facepalm: <-- I should have used this face in my first post.
Talk about horrific resale!

Has anyone traded a mk6 on a mk7? I'm considering trading in my MY11 103tdi golf but the salesman suggested they would only give me at max 15k. Not bad for a car that was at the 40k mark under 3...

Thankfully others have stuck up for my post. VW has extended dsg warranties in several countries throughout the world.. Russia was mentioned before and I've read in the US that a 10 year warranty is...

Wow. Does this mean every single type of DSG will have an extra 2 years from warranty commencement? So cars back as far as 2008 (if within 5 year period) are covered?

I called the dealer a month back. It only applies to 2013+ model golfs.

Owning a 6 speed DSG, I believe VW should extend warranties for DSG to a minimum of 5 years. This would cover cars back to 2009 and give many owners peace of mind that they wont have to drop 5k+ into...

I called my local dealership. Unfortunately it only applies to 2013 model cars.

Free extended warranty only applies to 2013+ model cars. Doesn't really help me out with a MY11 that's still under warranty

The 2.0 TDI really is great engine. Plenty of low down torque and power! I can honestly say mine does 6.5L/100km city driving (occasional highway). Great on fuel. People looking at this car will not...

Wow, so just to confirm, no coding at all and they work 100% correctly?

Hi guys,
looking for an RCD500 with the code.

Cheers!

Warranty repair?

Ryan, where did you purchase your extended warranty if you don't mind me asking? And what version of the Allianz warranty is it?

Thanks :)

EDIT: Okay, so there are three types of warranties. Wow. Only the 'official VW branded' Allianz warranty uses genuine parts all of the time.

I think I may go for the Allianz new car warranty and...

Right. Not sure how to get the proper vw extended warranty? It seems both the Allianz versions I was offered use non genuine parts..

Generally though, there aren't going to be aftermarket...

The product disclosure statements are very similar. They both state that they will use non genuine parts - the cheaper excludes things like exhaust and interior trims. $100 more seems worth it.
