I dunno. Don't care. I don't have a frying pan and have to send this one back and go buy another one. I am not planning to rebuy from Amazon for it, so I have to remember to make it to an actual store. meh.
Or you could be like me and have them keep sending replacements. I recently bought a trailer dolly. It was shipped with a bent axle. They sent a replacement. Which was bent. They sent another replacement, which was bent. I suggested they take the time to actually roll the axle across the floor before sending another. We'll see if they learned, cause they sent the 4th one out today
That's incredible.

Almost comical. Only reason i don't care is that I'm not gong to need it for another month or two

Yes, we just have to wait for it to come in. Getting a Golf R to replace it.
Golf R should be awesome

Something as vital as the axle though, wouldn't they check it prior though. Amazing.

Yea the retailer is being great, eating shipping obviously, but they r running out of patience with the manufacturer. The manufacturer actually changed axle suppliers and sent an axle from the new batch. It was 2 " too long. Incredible

Being highly experienced in these cars (owner of original year '75 school bus orange Rabbit), I'd be happy to flog, err track it for you if need be

We've got a long VW history too.

I have a feeling Holly's gonna say no way to tracking it though, but I can always try.
