    Angry Front R Badge - Gone!

    Hi Guys and Gals,
    Just noticed now that something was not right on the front and on a closer look. No more Front R Badge!

    What now? New from VW?

    Stolen or fell off... if it is the latter then back to your friendly Service Dept for a free replacement...
    Stolen... then purchase one through the Dealers parts Dept..

    Last alternative is to have the recess filled and bonnet repainted so there is no VW badge... but that is a bit extreme...

    Well, the problem is I don't know when it went. If it was today I only parked my car alone for a couple of hours at Alexandria (Inner Sydney).

    But since it is my daily drive, it could have been at the gym (Norwest) or well anywhere that I go. Even on my street outside.

    Is there any damage which would indicate it being prised off?

    I don't mean the VW badge, I meant the R Badge.

    I noticed when washing on weekend that it moved quite easily and appeared to be flimsy when my Chamois got caught up with it

    Why are you using a Chamois???? Only ever use microfibre.... unless of course you want to induce swirl marks...

    Doh... my bad... sorry I am having a dyslexic day...

    If it fell off then it is a warranty issue.... talk to your Dealer...
