    Buyback COMPLETED Car is now in Dealership Lot

    My 2011 Golf TDI was turned in as well yesterday. The reps working at the dealership were great and I was in and out within 20 minutes. I dropped my car off and parked it in the service area the evening before my appointment so when I drove in my other car the following day I had no...

    Error 8909

    Error 8909 is a SQL database error. It is a error that happens when you are making a request to the database and it can not find the table the info should be on. Just guessing their DBA's are probably aware and working on it.

    Weather Delays for Buyback

    They already have all your paperwork, that would be wrong to have you go through the process again. I would think they would rescheduled appointments locally, maybe adding an extra day. But again, there I go thinking and when has logic made any sense in this process.

    Weather Delays for Buyback

    That is three days away. I am thinking at this point the dealer would have no if they would shut down or not. If I were you I would call the dealership where you are returning your TDI and talk to the "ambassador" regarding your appointment. There might be an option to drop it off and park it at...

    Registration and Turn over Issues.

    I am not a specialist in TDI mechanics but recently my ex 2011 TDI had a dead battery, I called out AAA to jump it and it would not turn over. The AAA guy mentioned that TDI's will often not jump right away, he had to not only run cables from the truck but he let it sit for a few minutes. After...

    Idaho Buybacks

    Well, Utah is pretty close, maybe three hours so probably the info is the same :D. Good point, we really do not need a post for each state, going forward I will refrain posting in this post. My transaction went smooth, I was in and out in 20 minutes. In the dealer parking lot they had two...

    Buyback Check or Electronic Bank Transfer

    I think that was when scheduling your date of pickup, there are so many steps in this process it becomes a blur. A few days before your appointment I got an email reminder and on that email it says if yours is EFT or check. Hope that helps.

    Is there a limit on how soon you can set turn in appointment

    I found a car to purchase after I sent in my notarized paperwork. I went to my credit union and they put together a loan for the full purchase price on the car, they made my first payment date in 90 days, I knew I would get paid by VW by then. When I turn in my car at VW and receive the money I...

    If you are considering buyback which cars are you looking at as replacements?

    Yup, as much as I love manual transmissions the the statistic I saw was only 3.9% of new cars sold has them. You should get a discount in your insurance for MT, they are a millennial anti-theft device.

    If you are considering buyback which cars are you looking at as replacements?

    I am thinking with that much ice FWD, RWD, or AWD would make no difference and chains would be required.

    If you are considering buyback which cars are you looking at as replacements?

    My replacement for my Golf TDI is a Cadillac ATS. I timed the transaction where I own the ATS now and am turning in the Golf tomorrow. The one purchased is used (2014) but so far I really enjoy the car. For what it is worth my area saw snow just this last week and RWD was OK in bad weather. I...

    Portal down.

    Before mailing you might consider trying the upload at an off hour. I think I would prefer trying to upload at 1AM before I would paper mail it.

    I'll pay more for your car than VW

    Have to agree, I have an ATS with run flats and they are fine. They are holding up as well as regular tires and I have no problems with them. We are just done with a couple days of snow. I have RWD and it is fine on the roads but AWD would of been nice.

    VW Customer Care...what a joke.

    For a while I was doing over 100 miles a day in mine and put on the first 50K in no time. Sure 92K on a 2014 is possible.

    It could be just me but time slots to turn in only two days a week? What?

    I live in Boise, WAY smaller then DFW and we only have one dealership. The days I had to choose from are Tues,Weds, Thurs, Sat. They have to be ramping up.

    Who is the Co-Registrant on the buyback form? Need to know.

    Who's names are on the title. If it is only yours, then it should be left blank. As an example I owned a car a while back that my name as well as my wife on it. She was the co-registrant.
