Re: Cruise control (sorry for another post on this subject)

Re: Seat Exeo tdi 170 CR engine noise on idle

Thanks,

I was listening to the car again and the noise seems to vibrate down the car. Possible transferring the noise down the exhaust?

Seat Exeo tdi 170 CR engine noise on idle

2012 Seat Exeo tdi 170

Car is out of warranty only 32k on the clock

Making a strange noise under idle - from the outside outsides like a sub woofer.

Seems to be coming from the drivers side

Any ideas? Video below:#

Re: paint 12year warranty

Just received a call from Isaac Agnew VW they have received the authorisation from VW to fit new wings to the Passat, no fight was needed. The only thing I have to pay for is new side moldings with chrome at £80 something a pop but just going to ask them to blend it in instead of replacing them. :D

Re: paint 12year warranty

I brought my 04 Passat to Agnews repair centre in Belfast (VW) about 2 weeks ago they checked the paint thickness and took a few pictures, hopefully I will find out soon.
