    trying not to sound like a broken record... but the above is all as correct as can be

    i would assume they would give you a loan car to the equivelant until it is repaired (its only fair, especially considering you havent owned the car for more than 24hrs!!)... my pog was 2 days old and developed a knock, parts were going to take 3 days to get to the dealer, they gave me the keys to a new polo tsi for the time it was in the shop, and my pog was a 2nd hand purchase

    You will not get (nor are entitled) to anything for free like extended warranties etc so get that out of your head mate.

    Get a loan car - insist on it. Enjoy the car when it's ready.

    Only Advice I can give is be firm but accommodating. Faults happen. They will do all they can to fix it and the last thing you want is to be put on some sort of blacklist for being a difficult customer.

    Thanks for all advice mates! that really helps

    I asked for a loan car, they gave a 2.0 TDI DSG.

    20th/Dec/2010 12:40pm A Call from Dealer, Could be throttle sensor wire fault, ordered a parts from Sydney, Parts ETA tomorrow morning and fit-in afternoon

    Will try my best see if I can get any compensate and let you guys know.

    Does anyone know about placing throttle parts? Do they have tear down the whole engine or just something from interior?

    Would hate to have lose parts noise after all....

    Good question, being a drive-by-wire throttle (electronic) I would imagine the sensor is either within the throttle assembly or something to with the ECU.
    I once had a "throttle valve" replaced on a MK5 if this is what they meant?

    Off topic and not really in the spirit if things. There's a good deal of people on the forum, who might get cut up about the remark.

    The dealer actually seems to be doing a good job, time for a new thread title by the looks.
    Grammar and spelling? It shouldn't affect the right to a quality car.
    Can't hardly wait for the next instalment but, LOL!

    No it shouldn't affect the right to a quality car, but you can bet your ass it'll have an impact on how the dealer interacts with him.
