Paint bubble
« on: April 11, 2015, 10:20:02 am »
anybody else had issue with paint bubble over the front wheels. Mine has popped up in the last year. (05 plate) what sort of cost am I looking at to repair it?

To get your best chances with VW, print out the technical bulletin on the arch rust (Google it!!) and take in all your invoices for servicing & parts to demonstrate that your a loyal customer.

I took in over £3k of invoices and the bulletin and got both wings replaced & painted for free  :happy2:
