Anyone had a service at Skoda Wollongong or Rockdale?

I have a passenger side dashboard plastic squeak which went in to Camberwell VW three times to fix and on the 3rd attempt they did it. At first they said it was a clip behind the air vent, but eventually they said it was a fuse cover that had come loose and was rubbing with part of the dash. Seems strange because I thought the fuse locations were on the drivers' side, but anyway it hasn't been back sinse.

By the way it is an Octavia RS MY10

I'm amazed you could get Camberwell VW to even look at it. I used to work just down the road and now am pretty much right at them, and every time I have asked about them servicing they pretty much refused. Richmond Skoda isn't that far away so I just keep going there anyway.

I'm up for my 30k/2yr service in January. Purchased at Jarvin, first service at Damelian - both now dead as dealerships.

Rockdale is nearest, but has anyone had any recent experience there? Or shoudl I just make the effort to get over the bridges in the early hours of the morning to North Shore?

Its worth the trip out to Camden gti - and its cheaper.

And that's saying a lot given your location so near to Rockdale, but I'm looking for the best place for me to dropoff, get to work in the city then pick up PM.

Our Skoda VRS has had 2 services done at Northshore Skoda, no complaints from me. Don, the service guy was really helpful. They sorted our voice control issue after Sterve Jarvin stuffed it up installing the bluetooth. VW Village, are great also. In between oil changes done there and get my R32 serviced there also.

Cheers - I've just emailed VW Village to get their comments on servicing the Scout. Looking at the service schedule, the only thing some non-dealers may struggle with is the service interval reset.....

service interval reset for fixed service intervals (15,000km/12m) can be done via the buttons on the dash or via VCDS. It isn't difficult

In which case I may just head to VW Village and see how they go.....

Just had my 45000km dservice on our vRS petrol DSG done at Trivett Skoda Blacktown.
It's a combined VW, Skoda and Honda dealership.

They gave me a courtesy car (free) and allowed me to return the next day to pick up as I couldn't make it back that day.

The car came back washed, the highbeams realigned and the car driving like a dream.

I've had 2 previous services done by Northshore.
They were told about the headlight alignment problem but did nothing although they stated it had been rectified.
And returned it unwashed.

I'll go back happily and am happy to give them my Polo GTI for service too.
