Andywest2k1 Posted April 28, 2010 Share Posted April 28, 2010 Well, As some of you will know, i had to replace my front passenger side alloy and tyre because of pothole damage, cost me £120+ Took my car in for its service yesterday, and guess what! The other side is nearly the same. The tyre is ok so theyve put the alloy onto the back in order to get rid of some of the vibrations. I cant believe how easily these alloys are damaged! I thought the idea of buying a new car is so that it shouldnt cost you much in terms of repairs! This car is costing me a !Removed! fortune! Rant over ha!

Rogue_Shadow Posted April 28, 2010 Share Posted April 28, 2010 I swear you either 1) Take your MK7 off roading :D 2) Have shares in the alloy company Cant believe your going through them this quickly Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AndrewL Posted April 28, 2010 Share Posted April 28, 2010 Poor scenes. Even If my car starts driving like its going over a ploughed field I will never take it to the dealer for them to diagnose buckled alloys... that way I don't have to pay for replacements and won't feel bad not having them done.

calmcdermott Posted April 28, 2010 Share Posted April 28, 2010 I went down a massive one weeks ago, it mis-aligned my tracking, i was convinced my alloy was buckled, took it in and they said my alloy was fine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
