i had the same problem at bradford vw years ago. to be fair, the 1 helpful guy at northfield vw by me is a yoof. he has also got a nice flet of classic dubs :Dgo-for-it1 wrote:Before the new Scirocco came out I went into the dealership and asked for some parts. The spotty Yoof working on parts said "what car", when I said a Scirocco he said "Is that a Volkswagen?"hiltow wrote:I've always found my local dealership happy to help, ..... That said, one can sometimes come across the 'yoof' behind the counter who knows diddly-squat about the cars made before they were born and doesn't really want to give someone the time of day who needs them to go through ETKA to identify all the parts and numbers needed
only ever used tps a few times. for small odds and ends, they're not that helpful in my local one. only seem interested if it is a decent sized order. when i gave them a decent sized order though, they managed to give me a load of the wrong bits. full service kit including timing belt and tensioners, and a full set of brakes. they gave me bits for the new shape caddy, despite being given reg and chassis number
inceidentally, i did discover last week that gsf have a copy of etka, and if you're buying the bits they'll print off the page for you
