|  Re: Electrics. Groan...... Keep pursuing Skoda UK as well as the dealer. My car was out of warranty when I experienced the same problems, and it took several weeks of 'phone calls and a detailed letter before Skoda UK agreed to foot the bill for the Investigation, repair and a hire car. The supplying dealer was most unhelpful, using the same tone as you have experienced by quoting that this type of problem is not covered by the warranty. The strange thing is that they carried out an earlier repair on the interior lights under warranty but there was no record of this with Skoda UK........... |

| Re: Electrics. Groan...... Good news... Telfords of Carlisle have authorised the work to be done and will pay for it. I think this is very good service - I was prepared to have to return to them but they agreed it was rather a long way. Will see how good The Chippenham garage is now....  JJ |

| Re: Electrics. Groan...... Morning All. Think I am at last getting my car back. Leak sealed (Skoda sent bulletin on curing leak) Interior now replaced and ccmodule renewed and wiring repaired. At least I have saved just over 2000 miles on it!!! By the way the Fabia diesel went well but is rather hard riding and noisy. JJ |

I bought my 02 1.8T Comfort from a back street dealer with a full Skoda history but out of warranty, within 3 months of owning it I had the same problem, needless to say I hadnt even paid for a service yet so I took it to my local dealer, Farmers Skoda Leicester. They told me that even though there was no warranty it had a full Skoda history so Skoda were prepared to pick 80% of the repair bill and to make it better they also drops the 20% I had to pay as they were satisfied the Skoda payment would cover their costs, so all in all a bloody good result! I would go back and play bloody murder and insist they do it as it is a clear Skoda/VW design fault and if Skoda have paid for other cars to be repaired that is admitting its their problem, They are all on the same system so they should be able to check out what you are claiming! | |
