Wow what a day!!! Drove fromBasingstoke to Dorking station to collect husband so he could then bring my car home, then on to Tonbridge to collect Robbie. Left home at 10.45 and just arrived home some 6.5 hours later. Traffic round M25/M3 and weather absolutely shocking. Such a shame when it has...

Hi I followed link and found another link taking me to the VW site where they deal with enquiries. I entered my vin and was told that my Ocean 2016 204 dsg was not affected. So my assumption and hard to believe is that my CO2 is 169 and combined is still 44.1mpg. I say hard to believe as the...

204 just stays in the lower 1st year band of £800 so if you are being charged only £555 I'd keep quiet. TDi 204 2 wheel drive is now 190g/km if it was 191 it would have been £400 extra or inline with the TSi 204. Nasty bit is the 4M DSG is rated at 205 so £1200 first year VED plus the April...

Thanks for this. Be interested to here if any similar experiences. This is certainly not anything our dealer here in aNersey has any info on. I would have thought there must be plenty of other people ordering a 150 manual beach...be good to see their letters.

Just thought I'd throw in a little update. Considered many options now and have decided to go new. Thats a massive shock to my savings but all in all it equates, regarding how special the purchase and ownership will be, the age of the vehicle/residual value (which I guessed with some pessimism...

We are not informed in this country of these recalls/campaigns( not counted as safety issue),unless in garage for something else or more alarmingly when the engine management light comes on. Same recall as done on our 150 DSG 2016. Seems to be affecting 150 & 204 engines.

This gets harder by the day. Reliability issues and VW customer care are now my big issues. I want an Ocean with the DSG gearbox and4 motion but as this only comes with the 204 engine I have concerns. Those in the know seem to favour the 150. Add this to the fact that VW can't even update their...

I drive a Mercedes Axor artic that has a semi-auto box, similar to the DSG in as much as it has a clutch but no peddle & can drive in manual. In fact I believe trucks come with this type of box as standard now & manual is an option. One reason is improved fuel consumption when used in auto...

Remember, the DSG gearbox is NOT like the old Automatic gearbox with a torque converter. It is basically 2 ma nual gearboxes working in tandem with an automatic clutch and gear selection. The attachment DSG Gearbox describes how it works and DSG describes how to get the best out of it.

Do you have the built in SatNav?

I find the VW re-gen and consumption behaviour strange in comparison to what I'm used to. I'm still pre-update, 26 month old, 150 DSG, T6 Ocean and here is my experience so far. 1) The frequency of the regen is probably happening on the 2 hours and typically still in progress when my journey...

Many thanks @Andy Graham. I’ll ask the Indy if he can find anything about this patch. To me it sounds like a solenoid operating which I think @VW Guru mentioned. The mechanic thinks it sounds like the gearbox venting which could also tie in with the cooling valve as also mentioned in this...

I’ll keep an eye on your updates Phil but it’s looking good for summer for you. We ordered a Coast a month after you on 8th November. Lots of similarities with spec White/Ascot, towbar, reversing camera, wood look floor, aluminium awning, safe, mud flaps, panoramic roof bellows. Devonport 17...

Just picked up ours today! Now safely in garage. We had been given a delayed January pick up, but the dealer rang up out of the blue last week to say it had arrived. Hasn’t sunk in yet. It’s a 199 DSG & we had to pay the next band of vehicle tax £1760. Hope all the other 199 buyers get theirs...

Had our first service this week at 15000 miles at Citygate Wooburn Green. Very pleased with the experience, our only previous being a replacement table a few months ago. We needed a courtesy vehicle so booked a week ahead and were given a LWB Transporter for the 2days at no charge. Alongside...

At the beginning of June , I had my California beach in to the dealer for a diagnosis on a one trip only flashing glow plug warning light and an intermittent fault of a" clicking" sound at the rear of the vehicle, only ever noticed on start up, if switched off and re started the fault no longer...

Seeing the recent thread from PaulS, I echo his worries about the fragile build quality of the Calis. Internet forums are great to alert people what to watch out for, and to help owners get work properly identified during the warranty period. But forums also tend to present the negative...

This looks like a way to get a contribution towards an engine rebuild. jon798 Van Rookie Join Date: Feb 2013 Location: Wokingham Posts: 7 Re: New Engine needed on 'Velle Exec 180 after 65k miles – WTF? An update from me... Went to the dealer I bought it from. They told me the van had...

Thanks for the update! Great when posters give the final feedback/solutions encountered!

Had an email from my deal saying they've had an updated list and will call us soon once he's worked his way through it. We are number 333. Ordered 31st December. Originally April pick up, then July. Wonder what we are now. To be honest, even though it would be nice for July, at the end of...

Thanks Alan that would be very useful. I have been driving in a more refined manner as it’s brand new and although running in is a bit old fashioned I don’t usually give it much welly until 1,000 miles

I’ve noticed a difference in behaviour over our 2014 model, this one is more prone staying in gear at lower speeds on modest inclines, so maybe yours has been “improved” by an update! :confused:

Great to read, my 204 is going for a Revo remap and TVS at Bognor Motors on Wednesday. I have used them for over 8 years for servicing, have bought 4 new vans from them over the years and a Revo remap on a Golf GTD.

Had that glow plug blinking last winter. Was almost always flashing after a cold start way below 0'c. This year same deal after the start in mountains, but it didn't go away like before after restarting a motor. So I just ignored it and went on. In like 20minutes (check engine) yellow light...
