Need Advice Please .. Re T5
Its Noddy again folks... I'm in need of your help. Thanks everyone on your response to my other post.
Continuing the saga re noise problem in gearbox (maybe ) of new LWB 128kw Auto Transporter. Today I met with Volkswagen Australia rep who after driving the vehicle believes the issue "maybe " TURBO related. So this vehicle with less than 2000ks on the clock is about to undergo a turbo replacement.
I have a couple of questions I would like your advice on please.
The 1st is .... ( and I am completely a non mechanical person - that is why I bought the Volkswagen - believing I would get years of trouble free motoring )
... As I don't know the extent of the turbo problem ...only that ..if it is the turbo.. it has been making a loud rubbing type noise and causing the auto transmission to behave badly...jerking between 1st and 2nd gear and causing noise in other gears..at about the 2000 to 2500 rev mark...The question is..
...Would driving the vehicle todate ..ie 2000ks with a crook turbo ...have caused me other problems ...ie. engine issues...could I expect problems down the track because og the crook turbo.
The second question is related to the roof lining...when I picked up the vehicle I noticed the lining had a bow in it.... it got replaced the other day and blow me down if the new lining ended up with a bow in exactly the same place...( bowing occurs when the lining is attacheh to the roof )..can't just be a co-incidence can it ? Has anyone had any experience with this.Volkswagen are trying to get to the bottom of this one as well.
Other items such as dash rattles, noise in the steering, headlights out of alignment,and missing trim piece appear to be rectified or are in the process of rectification.Paint damage noted at time of delivery is still under resolution.
Sadly what should have been a great experience for me in buying a new Volkswagen is turning into a misery and I am slowly developing poor vibes about the Volkswagen product ...not the folks from Volkswagen endeavouring to assist me...they have been great..just the product.
Please folks ....if you could answer my questions I would be very appreciative.
thanks in advance
Noddy
