    Thinking about it, that's maybe why mine came through within days of contacting them.

        45 minutes ? what a crock , I removed ours twice when installing factory cruise control and it takes no more than ten minutes at best .
        But then we all know how much dealers like to ramp up income for any work done , and yes they would have to fill out paper work .

          Remember that they do have safe hand grenade disposal to account for too.

            VW Dealer wants mine for half a day, but assuming it will be a short job somewhere in their schedule. The will drop me off home and pick me up with an Uber. So next time a loan car is not available for a service, perhaps suggest an Uber! Cheers, Scott

              I registered using the link in #2 and phoned the dealer. He said it wouldn't happen until late this year or early next as they were doing Qld, NT, WA north first. But got a letter yesterday and booked it in for next week. And that's in Tassie, so it sounds like they can do it early if you ask.

                I just got a notice in the mail for my 2012 Transporter.
                On all the things I put my VIN into before they all gave the all clear.

                Oh well.........

                      Yeh i thought so as much and was taken aback when they said it was needed there for a day..
                      Didn't question it though unfortunately

                        Yeah, but. The day I put mine in, there were a dozen or more VWs getting their pyrotechnics redone.

                          Mine got done last week. They had it for few hours whilst also providing a complimentary wash and vacuum. Free Uber from and to pick it up. Cheers, Scott.

                                Got the letter last week and it was booked in for a service next week, i was wondering if it was a coincidence that i got the letter when the service was due or vw dealer is on to it. ��
