Just an update guys. VW came to the party and offered free parts. the dealer were able to push down the labour costs to $660 total and removed the $220 examining fee. i just accepted that, didn't think its worth my time and energy to go though ACCC.MY12 132TSI Tiguan Titanium Beige| DSG | Tint | Park Assist | RNS510 | Bi-Xenon |Comfort pack | R pedals | 155 Chrome Bits

Did have an AC unit go at 30K and was replaced under warranty. At 47K I would think you have a good claim for a product defect as this is quite low km's. In fact, how could you have done so little travel in 6 years?
I went from 25,000km per year to 5,000 after a change of jobs and moving house to a place with good public transport. I use the car to do the occasional "big shop", stock up on beer (wine and spirits get delivered), go to Bunnings or Supercheap and visit friends that live away from good transport connections. Sometimes the car sits for weeks at a time.carandimage The place where Off-Topic is On-Topic
I used to think I was anal-retentive until I started getting involved in car forums
