Cressa 44 Posted January 4, 2016 My ignition switch is WHITE. Is this likely to be a copy part or genuine? As I've got the dash out I'm thinking this could be a good time to replace after reading the problems it causes for people. Thoughts please Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Thoughts please genuine and original.... mine was white when I took it out at 40K. bought a new one recently from VAG it was £35.... the new one was black. but same part number put the best one in you can afford.... its a job you only want to do a few times....

Cressa 44 Posted January 4, 2016 I've got it out. ..white and definitely no part number on it, so I'm assuming it is a pattern part... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Cressa 44 Posted January 5, 2016 I've destroyed a very long thin screwdriver. Fortunately my dash was out so I think I cheated with that. Interesting still to say the least. Hopefully I won't have to do it again! ! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ryan_welshman 10 Posted January 28, 2016 Anyone have trouble with steering lock after fitting new switch? I bought the vag one and now it seems like the steering lock wont engage and theres no click as you take the keys out like it did before... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
