Thats how long a new pinch bolt is on order for so far, not good enough imo, should be a bucket of them imo in stock, tis things like this that will mean I don't buy Skoda again, so to sum up, we have a great car that if you want a bolt to complete a well known repair for, you have to wait.

Opinions?

Totally agree Superbia - this is not very good to have to wait up to now 8 days for a maintenance item. Do they have a delivery date and what do Skoda UK say about it?

Is is possible that the factory are OOS?

"Normally" I've had good results with special order parts from Skoda.

I wouldn't even bother to go to Skoda for spares - the dealers keep virtually no spares for the Superb in view of its market penetration.

When Rainworth Motors kindly sold me a vehicle with some of the undertray fixings missing, I got them over the counter from my local VW dealer - he didn't even need to look up the part numbers (I wonder why...). The pinch bolt would be no problem at all.
