Team Gen Six

Thought it was odd as Caili's have California on the light would have though the amount a Gen 6 cost it would have had that on the light. Does any one lese with a Gen 6 have the same
 
Part of me doesn't really mind, but then part of me thinks that these were pushed as "limited edition", "future classic" blah blah sales pitch blah...... so as RoadRunner says for what it costs it should be correct. Problem is, the salesman isnt going to give a toss lets face it. So who else would you possibly contact to get it corrected!!!!?
 
Take it to your dealer and insist they are changed, they can run your vehicle through ETKA and it will show as a fitted part, while you are there tell them you want the two Gen 6 external badges that should have been fitted but dont make it onto UK vehicles, these will also be supplied FOC
 
Emailed dealer and they said they can supply the correct ones for £108!!!!! I put it to them that surely they would be replaced FOC as they are incorrect....... and he said he needs to confirm with his sales manager so will be back in touch tomorrow!!! I have also requested the external stickers as well. Cheers @Pauly . I'll save the ETKA for now!

It's crazy eh. You should see the email trail, it's like playing a game. Basically pretending to want to buy them, much like fishing, the when you get a bite, hit them with what you really think otherwise I'd never get an answer in the first place!

Would the two external stickers be on the ETKA??? My dealers asking why they dont come as standard....

Gen 6 is the only vehicle they should come fitted too but for some reason UK ones don't have them from the factory, they can claim them under warranty so it doesn't cost them anything

Blimey, that's poor service!
All good otherwise?
I love the Gen6 interior.
To be fair, so far it's been bloody brilliant! We really do it love it and yes the interior was a big factor for us, especially having owned cars all our lives. The power is superb too. Although I admit I would have loved 4Motion (as a "just in case" really) but hey you can't have everything!

Only other issue was they supplied us with wrong bike rack keys and after 6 weeks of waiting, numerous emails & calls they decided a new bike rack was in order so replaced the lot!!

Sounds good.
We ordered the bike rack - really good piece of kit but it does feel a bit like we have a load of scaffolding hanging off the back!
First proper test starts tomorrow; four bikes, one holiday in France. Never taken bikes before.

I kinda like the look of the racks on our vans for some reason.
Ah fantastic! Have a great time and safe journey. My kids are 7 months old and 2 and a half so a little way off yet....but I'm ready haha!! We are heading down your way, Mawgan Porth for our holiday so fingers crossed for the weather!!!
 
We're taking our 3 (5,6 and9) to Center Parcs at the end of the month. Trying to source a VW bike rack at the moment
 
I've got one but don't know how to use it... I can't figure out how you attach the poles to the bike frame ☺️

aaaaaaaand still no reply!!! It's like pulling teeth
 
That is true but if you own a Gen 6 they should supply them FOC as they are left of UK vehicles for some reason ?

Anyone managed to get the dealer to supply the Generation 6 badges for the doors ?
I have asked. They have agreed to supply me the correct "Gen 6" light casings for the foot-wells (i should hope so!!)...... he asked aren't the gen 6 stickers supplied on the van, i explained that they should be but weren't and that VW should be able to supply them FOC......I've since conveniently heard nothing!!
