Hi
i own a 2005 vw golf 2.0 gt tdi. i had a problem on the drivers door by the top of the window! while driving at around 50mph i was getting wind noise by the A post and the door rubber which sits on the A post when closed.. to me it looked like the top of the window frame wasn't adjusted right, you could see the rubber was jutting over the A post which was probably causing the wind noise...
so i thought i would book it in with the experts at vw for it to be done under warrenty.... anyway they had the car for about 1 hour the warrenty girl came back and said its all done and they have just fine adjusted the top of the door!! so i thought great its fixed so i got in and drove it home but now the wind noise is worst it starts at arround 40mph now and is mush loader!! when i got home i had alook at what they would have adjusted at the top of the window.. i was horrified to find that the other end of the frame on the door at the same hight as the door panel inside was all creased and the paint work as cracked!!! so there fine adjustment looks like they have just got there knee just above the door pannel and pulled on the top of the frame to bend it closer to the B post which wasnt even where you could here the wind noise...
i am very disapointed in vw you take it to the maindealers and expect good work done not a bogded job!! i mean i could have done that myself!!
the question is should i go back and tell them im not happy or just leave it?
or is me just being to fussy?
thanks for listening sorry its so long neil
