Re: Windscreen - needs replacing due to large chip/crack - do you get autoglass to do it?

Is the GTS new or new to you? If the car is under 3 years old Autoglass use OEM screens. They also now have a number of calibration centres. It totally depends on your policy. When I changed cars, whilst still on an Admiral policy, you paid £70 if Autoglass did the replacement but they would contrib...

Re: Macan s 2017 foglight question


Glad I saw this a year ago...kind of proved to me that £175 labour quote for a broken lamp replacement by an OPC was extreme.

Did they state Nav was included in the spec when you bought it? If so you've got them by the short and curlies. If not you've...
