Work van Wednesday

WVW
Van went into main dealer for interim service and has come home with crankshaft oil seal failure, drl's not working and broken rear springs.
So another couple of days without it at the end of the month for warranty work.

At least the work will be done under warranty, if you weren't aware of the issues it's good that they were identified while you're still covered.
Yes, I know, it'd be better still if none of the faults were there at all!

You’ve only had it 5 minutes haven’t you? Did you buy it from VW? Like has been said least it’s covered, just doesn’t help not being able to use it!

I picked it up brand new 28 months ago and just done 40k, bit disappointing that this will be it's 8th trip back to the dealers.
No loan vehicle supplied either, so more loss of earnings.

Bugger sorry I got you confused with someone else who just bought one a few weeks ago! Still, that’s annoying when things like this happen when it’s your work van!!
