Towbar Golf 7

Post by timmotouch »

Hi Guys

Hope you can shed some light for me on fitting a towbar on the Golf 7 after delivery from factory.

We inquired about fitting a towbar from a VW Dealer and was told that we would loose two years of the warranty and the total cost of fitting a towbar would be R19 881.60. The car was bought in November 2017.

Now the quote is madness or am I wrong?

Why lose 2 years of your warranty? Find out how much a Thule agent will charge you and it can be removed if the shite really hits the fan!

Mate had same experience at BMW, took some vaseline and dropped 14k on a towbar. 2nd car exact same story at BMW but R4500 from THULE

Phone VW Hatfield now and they have a Thule option for R6.5k.

So might be going that route and also asked about the warranty no issues from them.
