I have had a puncture repair (mushroom type) done by a tyre shop on my 2023 Tiguan R 1000 mile old drivers side rear tyre. I wondered does this type of repair allow motorway speed capability/normal use or would further care, reduced speed and attention be needed before the end of the life of the tyre? thanks

Got notified that WeConnect is stopping soon and changing over to a new VW app, on first thoughts doesn't seem to look as good! What's everyones thoughts on this?

Yea you're right, im PCP. missed the 'lease' text from original message.

VWFS never held my V5, put my plate on myself and never told them, paperwork changed automatically on annual balance sheet. That was 3 years ago.

Yea your right, just done some research. Doesn't look good for me then lol. 👍

Sort of glad they might be bringing out a newer version, was looking to change my 7.5 for a Tiguan R but was left underwhelmed by the interior finishing, all feels very basic and a step down from the 7.5 for me. Would have liked to have seen the new gear shifter style like the GOLF 8, the digital dash looks/feels cheaper, the leather seats look horrible, to name a few. Looking forward to seeing the new version with fingers crossed.

Welcome! Welcome!😀

Hi All, I'm a few months away from my car being 3 years old and am looking into options for warranty going forward. I do not use the car loads, i only have 4500miles on it from new. Option 1 - VW 'All In' Currently £29.99 per month for 'All In Plan' from VW, so £719.76 for 2 years. Which includes the servicing, MOT etc which is nice. Just worried out VW small print on what is covered etc and loop holes they they may not cover. Option 2 - Warrantywise Also just had a quote from Warrantywise which costs £34.58 per month, so £830 for 2 years. Which seems to cover absolutely everything bar 'wear and tear' items, It specifies ALL MECHANICAL AND ALL ELECTRICAL PARTS OF YOUR VEHICLE INCLUDED. hAS no excess and it also has an up to £200ph inc vat labour rate and can be done through main dealer or your preferred local garage as long as VAT registered. I Understand this means servicing and MOT's is on top. Option 3 - Gamble Go without a warranty and take the risk for 2 years with the amount of usage i get out of it??? Option 4 - Sell it and get the bus to the coast when i want to get away 🤪 Thoughts people? much appreciated

Type the below into eBay, should be first hit. Seller name is mithi11 looks like cost is now £52.99 for the set. VW GOLF MK7 2013-2020 HEAVY DUTY RUBBER TAILORED FLOOR MATS BLACK FRONT BACK 009

Saw these car mats recently come up for sale on Ebay and needed some new ones so gave them a try £32.99 delivered. Really happy with the look of them, yet to see how they hold up but for circa £30 well worth it with the blue accents etc. The fixings are nice and tight and the middle rear extra joining section is a nice touch but not sure whether to keep that in or not yet. Every time the buyer sells a set they seem to go up in price but thought i would share on here in case anyone else was looking for some good looking rubber mats. (apologies about the state of the carpets as have not hoovered my car in a while)

OUTSIDE CAR COVERS Anyone use or know of good quality weatherproof car covers, seem to be cleaning my car more than im using it at the moment 🙈,pondering whether to get one or if they are more trouble than there worth due to storing them when off and if a nightmare to put on and off on your own, scratching etc? Any feedback would be appreciated. Thanks

Feel like they did the Goodyears 'dirty' at the end there lol. The Michelin was all fresh and clean looking and. the Goodyear covered in dust/dirt. I like the look of both! Currently have the Contis on mine but can't wait to try out some of these in the near future 👍

Question Part 1 - I Have a 2x service plan only currently, 1 minor was done and the next due at the end of the year is my 3 year with the Haldex etc service, will the haldex service etc be covered on my next service which I have already paid for? Question Part 2 - Does the All In Service Plans that include the 2 x MOT's etc cover any items that are carried out on either minor or major services? Thinking of getting the All In Service when my current 2 x service plans runs out

I have and use one of these also, does the job nicely. I use it outside though so noise not too much of an issue

Nice one 👍. Welcome to the R club... yeah I still love mine after a couple of years of ownership! I also waited for the right example with absolutely everything added and it was worth the wait. Such a nice place to be every time I get behind the wheel.
