What's with this crap about having to contribute 50% of replacement tyre costs???
I've read other postings on here suggesting it is acceptable to pay circa 50% contribution becasue "we got X thousand miles from them before VW agreed to change them" or some other similar statement.
Consider this:
If the engine blew up after X thousand miles, would you accept VW asking you to contribute to 50% of the replacement cost on the basis that you did manage to get X thousand miles from the engine before it really needed replacing?
Of course you wouldn't so why accept this lame response over your tyres?
