After 8 months the first service is on. The Phaeton was taken over with 51.xxx km. Now he has 65.xxx km on the clock. About the (somewhat annoying) change from Long-Life to the fixed interval I had already written something. Regardless of this it will be his third service. Let’s see how it goes… The service ad came a bit late… But now it is there. Service in 71 days or 900km. Since the statements here in the forum and also at various dealers during my search are from Other things went, which includes “service”, I called at VW. The statement there: “The Phaeton can be serviced in any VW workshop or certified workshop. There is no replacement car during this time. Hol- and Bring-Service lies with the workshop.” So do not pick up anything with replacement phaseton or even Phaeton and bring it back. OK. Service in every 08/15 VW workshop (or see above) is now new. In order not to get any trouble with VW-Leasing, however, I prefer to take the VW-W For safety reasons I chose a VW workshop, which also waits or sells Phaetons (to stand or advertise on the yard). After a somewhat difficult “recording” (computer) came the question about the date and procedure. After consultation with another employee comes the statement: “Replacement vehicle costs extra. Hol- and Bringe-Service is free.” Replacement vehicle would not be Phaeton. Since the workshop is 30km away, I chose the service. Phaeton is fetched at 8 o’clock o’clock o’clock o’clock o’clock o’clock o’clock o’clock o’clock o’clock o’clock o’clock o’clock o’clock o’clock o’clock o’clock o’clock o’clock o’clock o’clock o’clock o’clock o’clock o’clock o’clock o’clock o’clock o’clock o’clock o’clock o’clock o’clock o’clock o’clock o’clock o’clock o’clock o’clock o’clock o’clock o’clock o’clock o’clock o’clock o’clock o’clock o’clock o’clock o’clock o’clock o’clock o’clock o’clock nd returned at 5 p.m. Good that I still have a vacation in the new year. Alternatively to jet through the republic with a polo would be a bit stupid… I would stay tense. With my Skoda there was a replacement car for the service in addition to the hol and bring service. Replacement car (Octavia) was brought and Yeti was picked up. In the afternoon the same game only the other way around. No extra costs. Costs for the service were in the forum comparison rather in the lower area. Vehicle was also inside and outside next week I know more. LG Mi-go
