Just got my final figure from Audi after getting the fix on my A8. I got a half payment several months ago of $4292 and was expecting another $4292. The payment coming will be $2000 higher. Woohoo!!!!! That was totally unexpected.

Anyone else experience this?

Did you actually receive the top-up payment already and it was confirmed to you? or are you still expecting that?

I have been working with VW Counsel and harassing VW claims since July for the remaining retribution owed.

*Nevermind* you were getting the fix... my bad :D

Strange, why?

Not certain but I suspect the prior lessee didn't fulfill the requirements to get a payment, and now it's in my bank account. Now just waiting for the remainder from Bosch.

Waiting (again) on Bosch. What a screwy system they are using.

Dr. Chill - PM sent. I got the exact opposite. I received an email today stating that I had to resubmit as a lessee. I originally started my claim as an owner with my VIN indicating a substantial claim. After a phone call w/VW GOA, they reinforced that the VIN was associated with a prior lease. I purchased the Q7 about 2 weeks ago so I'm fairly new to this process. I've been trying to read up as much as I can. Hope to get some clarification and congrats on the Top up.

Yeah...I'm in same boat at 3hkdad...Q5 showed full restitution ($9000) "available" when I purchased the car, but claim offer is for 1/2 of lessee amount ($1000)...OUCH!

Let me know if you make any progress.

Those of us with 2nd hand 2.0s aren't getting the second half of the restitution payment at all, let alone a reduced amount. The portal says how much we're entitled to, but no one has successfully received it and reported back here.
