New Octavia ....when? How Much?

[GTR27]

You had an issue with the headlight unit? Xenon's ? (You have an rs don't you?) Or did it sustain some damage?

Yeah, i have an RS so it's the Xenon unit. Essentially water ingress causing the DRL to die, other lights still works fine. I discovered one of the cap is loose which allow water to collect and condensing inside the unit, it took a bit of a force to snap it back in place.

Good thing that you ask, upon delivery of your new car, pop up the bonnet and check that all the headlight's black sealing caps is close tightly.

I'll make sure I check it. Mine has xenon's (tech pack).

Will check mine too...

Sigh. After hearing that Skoda cars all removed from the showroom.... Called the dealer today. Vw aus has seized all the cars, and apparently stripped the dealership for vw and Skoda off bb. Have called vw and apparently someone is 'on the case' but no one can tell me what's happening, or when I will get my car. They have assured me that it won't be sold to another person, but aside from that they can't tell me when I will get it, or even if it will be through bb Skoda. If I ever get a call from them, I think I'm going to demand some sort of compensation. This is ridiculous, and it was made worse by vw seizing cars and revoking dealership.

Hope things get sorted out quickly mate, nothing like a wait at the end of a WAIT!

It's been 12 days since the ship docked. I don't want it left in the **** weather we have been having, a very real chance of hail with the crazy storms we have had.....

I just want the bloody car! I can only imagine how pissed off you were at a major cock up!

I have my car booked in for next week as well. They are replacing driver side headlight (ordered from Germany 4 weeks ago) and infotainment system (dead speaker problem, also ordered from Germany).

We'll see how it goes.

They are closed.

The dealership for both vw and Skoda had been revoked.

Yeah bugger mate, and that means you will have to deal with Prestige, who are a bunch of **$**%$%. The issue I have now is a direct result of Prestige
