PSU: I see the wheel poking up in the rear window like :wave:
Thanks brother. These are the only cheap ish option for 17s I can stomach. Your R32 makes me miss mine. It must be fun to take that out for a spin and hear that exhaust whenever you want to. Enjoy.
I had that same issues on my 19 R. Replaced under warranty. Glad the dealer did the right thing for you and me. Some have gotten screwed with a set of cracking 2k headlights.Went to a new dealer today to have my headlights replaced. I forgot to take pictures of the before but essentially they were like others have posted here before with the spider like cracking. What was more unique in my case was small vertical hairline cracks all along the bottom in addition to the typical spider cracking that creates a haze.
I bought my MY18 used in Virginia off a Chevy dealer lot a couple years ago and the vertical cracks were present then but not the hazy spider cracks, with the car being 1 year old and only 3,200 mi on the OD. I figured then since there were no impact craters this would be an easy warrant fix. So I take the car over to the local VW dealer a month or so after purchase and they try to tell me that since the hood and front bumper have road debris dings that the vertical cracks were from that and would not replace under warranty. I was pretty pissed but I expected it to be because most dealerships suck this one in NOVA was no exception. The headlights had no visible or discernible impact craters when touching, smooth as a fresh pair. I said screw it and went stage 2. Fast forward, I moved down to Florida and and about 10 months pass and I start to notice the spider cracking getting really bad, especially when the lights are on. So I take it back to the VW dealer here, show them and within 5 seconds they said that they would replace them under warranty. Took them 2hrs and not a single mention of my rock chips on the bumper.
Its bull**** how hard they fight sometimes. I had to keep arguing with the dealership when my headlight got a crack in it. It was on the side of the light no way its from a road hazard/impact. Was a frustrating few weeks and then finally after the photos went all the way back to Germany HQ they decided to "good will it".I had that same issues on my 19 R. Replaced under warranty. Glad the dealer did the right thing for you and me. Some have gotten screwed with a set of cracking 2k headlights.

Car cover?...and there she rests until May:
Let's keep the nice R in the worst place possible. I can't be the only one who hopes those.jack stands sink in the ground and jazz up the car from that God awful storage location....and there she rests until May:
It’d be silly to take a picture with the cover on it.Car cover?

I know I’m just checking if he’s gonna put one on!It’d be silly to take a picture with the cover on it.
You might want to research if leaving the suspension in full droop for an extended period of time is ok. I know on many FWD and AWD or IRS cars that allowing the suspension hang in full droop (for extended periods), to include the extra weight of the wheels, is typically not recommended.Car cover?
