Thanks for the update - that’s very useful. And yes, my journey is actually as you said. And RE: courtesy car, yes, I made it clear to the dealer that the van is our only car. So if it must stay longer than the day, I need a courtesy car. They said they’d give me one - but the proof will be in the pudding.There is now a replacement pump unit at the dealers with my name on it. I am confident that we’ll be back on the road in the near future. The sequence of events has been exactly as outlined by @andyinluton previously ( software update, change ram, change other ram, change pump )
To @Mehdime, so far you’ve done everything right and avoided some mistakes I made.
You involved VW assist right at the start.
You got some great photos
You have made the dealer you bought the van from ( I assume ) in Ireland aware of the problem and are taking it there for repair. That’s all good.
The van is less than 6 months old. Excellent.
You bought the van to go camping with your family and now you can’t because the roof doesn’t work. At this moment in time the van is not fit for the purpose you bought if for. Of course you must give the dealer the opportunity to put things right. They will follow the VW script. The van could be in there for a lot longer than 2 days, if it all goes to form you’ll end up with a new pump. Make sure you get a courtesy van or car. Finally don‘t give up, it’ll get fixed.
