Today i have had my 55 plate vrs for 4 days - love it just love it.

However - left middle airvent - one of paddles / fins wont move when others do.

Sringy sound rattle from airvent when passing over road dips and bumps.

+ Interior light ceiling mounted button - when i tried to switch it to on there was a spring sound and the slider button fell out.

Whats goin on? - thought these were VW tried and tested (never fail) vents / buttons / switches etc.

Are these items covered on warranty and if so ( i live in stockport) where is the most convenient garage to take it??

I don't know the answer to your other questions, but this one I have first hand experience with

I am in the process of fitting a handsfree kit to the car and I thought it would be good if i could stash the microphone behind the little grill in the light switch. So I prised it off the ceiling and in doing so I managed to lose the spring that holds the switch. After effing for about an hour I managed to resolve the problem by locking it into place with one of those wire connectors (see http://www.maplin.co.uk/images/Full/YP97F.jpg - 3rd row from top, on the right). Works a treat

The nearest garages to you, will be the same as mine, so either Horners Skoda, 218 Bury new road, Manchester, or Claybank Skoda 718 liverpool road, Eccles, or even Grassmere Skoda brindley way, Macclesfield. Search on the skoda.co.uk website for more if needs be

:rubchin: I'm saying nothing, :shhh: I'm sure most of you know my opinion on that subject already

VW tried and tested means it isn't always tested :P

That said, stuff like that is definitely and without any doubt a warranty issue, sounds like the pre-delivery checks have been skipped/rushed a tad

I'd have a good check over of the car yourself, test whatever you can by using the normal controls etc, and then go make an appointment with the dealer.

Although I've had a mixed dealer experience (post-sales), with stuff like that they ought to be quite helpful, especially as they will be hoping you service your car with them

With some luck they should be able to sort you out pretty quickly
