amen...If, if, if! This is all hysteria! "They" can't force you to do anything. Relax and act as business as usual until an OFFICIAL announcement is made.
This link will give you best estimate for your buyback value at the moment:Hi guys.... long time since I have been here !!!!!
So do I understand the settlement proposal correctly .....my loaded 2011 TDI highline sunroof, leather, navigation & 6 SPD with 60000km is worth the same as a basic 2011 comfortline!!!!!
I did that already and that is why I asked the question on here as I was not impressed with the $15400 estimate.This link will give you best estimate for your buyback value at the moment:

The usual disclaimers are on that website .
Or, you you could say it is worth $2K less than my 2014 comfortline sportwagon with 65K kmsSo do I understand the settlement proposal correctly .....my loaded 2011 TDI highline sunroof, leather, navigation & 6 SPD with 60000km is worth the same as a basic 2011 comfortline!!!!!

I totally agree with u this debacle is stupid right down to the judge extending the timeline to approve the original settlement![FONT="]Regarding the botched Canadian claims process...[/FONT]
[FONT="]A very bad joke indeed.
What a bunch of morons VW has put in charge of the claims process. They must be related to the idiots who thought originally bugging the computers was a good idea.[/FONT]
[FONT="]The claims processing team new EXACTLY the maximum number of potential claimants, 105,000, set up a website and data process to handle the claims. NOT![/FONT]
[FONT="]But let’s not confuse them with the facts.
Initially the site can't handle the volume and crashes. What the hell is up with that? Can these guys count??
Then the site doesn't enable dealer selection for the emissions repair.....so down it goes for another few hours. When it's up again the site doesn't allow for the mileage allowance calculation and thus uses actual odometer readings to calculate the settlement offer. These guys really are STUPID.[/FONT]
[FONT="]Then the site goes down again…..these guys are f*cked in the head.
I call the 800#, wait on hold for an hour, get some idiot fresh out of school who tells me I need my claim number for them to reset my file so I can start the process once again. But my claim number was not provided in the most recent crash of the site and I can't get back in, down for the evening presumably. I’ve already wasted four hours today and have nothing to show for this idiocy. And without the functioning mileage adjustment calculator how is this a solution?? Yes, it appears they are that damn dumb.
Back up again, the site then continues forward using the incorrect mileage figure and proceeds to make me an offer which, WOW, you can choose to accept.....if you're as stupid as they appear to be. OMG, what the hell is wrong with these people???? then the site goes down again. To be fair, underage children could have handled this better.

[FONT="]While waiting for these retards to fix this process I am seriously thinking about purchasing from a different manufacturer altogether. Take the money and run. FAST.[/FONT][FONT="]

[FONT="]I hate VW for putting me through this rediculous fire dance. You can't get more unprofessional than th[FONT="]is[/FONT].

I already have decided, a new Acura RDX.[FONT="]While waiting for these retards to fix this process I am seriously thinking about purchasing from a different manufacturer altogether.[/FONT]
A few weeks ago I put a refundable deposit on a '17 Sportwagon, but now give pause to think abandoning the brand may in fact be a very good thing. I can hardly begin to imagine my frustration if that car is a big fat lemon.....made with the company at low morale.I already have decided, a new Acura RDX.
Poorly implemented / executed.
They must have hired the same people who came up with the government's Phoenix pay system, in other words a bunch of incompetent managers, but then aren't they all usually.
That actually was my initial choice since I miss the utility aspect of my old Honda CR-V that I owned from new for almost 15 years.Any decent alternatives to the Sportwagon come to mind?
Lucky yours is newer...That actually was my initial choice since I miss the utility aspect of my old Honda CR-V that I owned from new for almost 15 years.
But unless it is a diesel, I really do not want a turbo in any of my cars. Besides, I have a mere 41K kms on my Jetta TDI after 3.5 years and fuel mileage isn't that much of a concern. I bought it for other reasons. I have no idea what VW will do with the buy-backs; too bad because someone would get one hell of a well maintained, ultra mint TDI.
They do not last. Not an issue if they were cheap, but they are not.What's the reason for no gas turbo?
Use the mobile site from your cellphoneTotal Nitemare. When I seen they wanted Bill of sale and a conscent form uploaded and being unprepared and getting kicked off the site and not being able to log back in numerous times I decided on opting for the mail in choice . After finally finding Bill of Sale and conscent form filled out and scanned I thought I would be able to get the call centre idiots to give me an email to send them into, nope not a chance, they said try again later today and there was going to be an option to edit this choice as I wasn't the only one that came across this issue, still waiting. GRRRRRR
I agree, you would think they would have at least done a few run through's, Postal code first glitch.And it's not like this is the first kick at the cat since they've been doing this stateside for many months now......brings back the tainted image of a bunch of greasy nerds with pocket protectors who don't really give a ****.
Why go live when you know you aren't ready??? That's why they're stupid.
My new 2015 TDI is sitting in the lot for when the lawyers finally get done and the dust settles, that and I hit a pot hole and front tire blew and don't want to buy a new tire.What's the rush? Wait a little until everything settled and then submit. You had your cars for years, what's a few more weeks going to do.
Timing is everything in life, yours is just a little different from others.What's the rush? Wait a little until everything settled and then submit. You had your cars for years, what's a few more weeks going to do.
If I understand some class action info online correctly, we can also claim accessories purchased for our cars like a trailer hitch, summer wheels, and tint ?
Also, I see conflicting information about the appraisal process... I thought the appraisal for us 2015 owners was based on the mileage at the time we brought in our credit cards to get activated and they documented the km's.. ?
I have 74k on my 2015 already so, I hope Im not penalized for all the kms
