Urs must be wet dsg or u change dsg oil frequently

For me, I would not want to over-analyse the situations but just enjoy the improvements as it is. Would not lose sleep if VW slip a position or two or three in sales volume, more relevant would be having enjoyable workshop experience when going servicing. So long as VCS don't close shop would be ok.

Wow! U still wat a future VW car. Well if it is the wet dsg shld be less issues like the sharan. Vcs is still overcrowded. No courtesy car too.

Seriously i would not minx if it is of wet clutch. Service centre congestion issues are becoming acceptable, and normal ADs do not provide courtesy cars. Think we are too pampered by VCS that we have withdrawal syndrome now, haha.

I don't mind get the R series like Golf or Scirocco in the future. Fun, fast and cheaper than other conti offerings of the same performance bracket.

Think many suffer post traumatic stress disorder instead.

Frankly I have alot of sympathies for those who bought the early batches of vs cars with dry clutches, and have alot of negative experiences with SA and workshops who have no ideas how to solve the issues. With the wait for solution went into months, no wonder many have the mouthy disorder that you described. Think even some non-vw ride owners also suffer from it, haha.

 

Good thing VCS was already working on it when I go my ride, thus I did not suffer much except for slight workshop delay when booking servicing slots. And different people take things differently, I have been optimistic.

With sky rocketing COE and restrictions on car financing makes it worse, many got stuck with it.

One thing i find amusing in this forum is that i must be selling the ride if i am to go about defending it. Can't. I speak as one who had personally owned the ride and speaking from personal experience?

I never deny that my ex-vw ride ganna some failures as i have listed them down clearly in previous postings. Nothing to hide.

 

Yet i am not aggrieved like some other people as perhaps i still find them manageable.

 

And yes i have moved on to other ride, but that does not mean i only have negative experiences from the ride. i also never expected to be able to move on so quickly, but why not when the opporrunity presented itself. I always never discount moving back to VW, if the price is right haha.

[redkenken]

By now your car should be already in VW workshop and you should know if you are entitled to free replacement?
