I did not get a message but the CRM has reached out and scheduled a pickup and drop to get this done for the driver side window. I did pop a question on twitter about it and they followed up. I also have reported the absymal performance of the AC even after their proposed s/w update. Will know on Monday.

That is something many will risk, in addition to knowingly do something against the law. Better to lobby against it correctly, if one has the means and connections.

I took the plunge two weeks back but went with Garware Supreme series instead of 3M CR70 at 1/3rd of the cost. A little less heartache if this scenario eventually happens.

Thanks
I am finding the AC issue also bit resolved. Though it's quite hot in Delhi now and it takes couple of minutes to make you comfortable after starting

Has anyone tried adding 360 degree camera from third party vendors. I found this online

Third Party 360 degree camera

When I checked with them, they said it is connected socket to socket and doesnt tamper electric harness and hence doesnt void warranty. When I checked with VW salesperson, he "unofficially" told it doesnt void warranty. Can someone here confirm the same?

With the recent news of cars catching fire due to wiring issues (as per manufacturer analysis), I wouldn’t take the risk of getting this done if it is not offered from VW.

I am in the market for Taigun 1.5 DSG Automatic and have got PO issued from leasing company and the issue is I have a fixed date before which car has to be registered to comply with leasing policy.

VW dealer initially agreed to deliver car within the expected time but now claiming that he cannot get the colour I asked for (Yellow) in time and asking if I can chose either white or grey but I don't like either of those colours.
SA is asking they have a Dec-2022 manufactured car and can offer good discounts upto 80k if I am ok with it but I am not sure if it is ok to buy 4-5 months old manufactured car and the only difference between Dec-2022 to latest model would be OBD 2.0 and I don't believe its a deal breaker though.

Any suggestions from experts in this forum whether buying a previous year car in current year is ok not considering resale value.

I also had a choice to make between BS6-Phase1 and BS6-Phase2 - ended up going for the Phase2 given the support for E20 petrol which would be useful in the future. I was also advised along the same lines by other members in this forum. Also - the Phase2 Highline had additional features like auto headlamps & rain sensing wipers.

Try to check with other dealers in Bangalore. I had a pretty good experience with the Palace Cross. From what I have learnt, their dealership has a better inventory.

In the morning it goes Is it normal?

Although the occurrence is common depending on where you live, this shouldn't be ignored. Take it to the dealer and get the headlamp seal checked, which is allowing the moisture inside. If they cannot fix it maybe they can replace the unit.

Our 2022 VW Taigun 1.0 MT refused to start earlier today. My dad called VW Frontier Gurgaon, and they sent a flatbed but they didn't care to actually look into it for like two hours. After which we were told that everything - all electricals, fuse, battery (battery power is working, even AC/Stereo, but engine won't crank) is fine. They aren't able to understand it. The power isn't going to the starter motor, they will probably check it tomorrow. It's very annoying, and how VW Gurgaon treats the customers. Our Taigun is Jan 2022 manufactured, March 2022 registered and has clocked 23,000kms. Just to give some background, I was among the first few to observe the AC issues and raise awareness here.
