The majority of orders are shipped the same working day, where the order is received before 2pm. Orders can take 1-3 working days to be dispatched for larger/bulky items or if the item needs to be ordered in due to low stock levels. Some parts are noted in the listing description as 10-14 working days for dispatch, this is because the parts are kept in a Volkswagen warehouse location and will be with us at our warehouse in the allotted time and then dispatched to you. You will be notified should there be any delays or problems with the dispatch of your order, otherwise look out for the 'Order completed' email which notifies of your order being complete and on the way.

Shop safe and securely here with us at VW Parts International Currently we are sacrificing instant messaging in favour of speed by only loading resources when the button 'messages' is clicked. The messages system is only loaded once you click 'messages' in the menu. Previously we loaded the chat/messages on every page while the page loaded, regardless if you actually used it, while this was great for having a conversation as you browsed the site, it was also unneeded for customers not needing to chat, and unnessacery loading delay and bandwidth in page loading. Due to now only loading the resources required after you click messages, this also means the conversation will not be retained when you navigate away. We will still get your messages but upon clicking away or messages on a new page, it'll start again. Keep the tab open to finish the conversation. Further once the page has loaded and you click messages and then close it, the resources can not reload again by clicking messages. Refresh the page to start again. If you close the chat and then need to chat again, you will have to refresh the page and re request the system by clicking messages. Have you tried to message us using the messaging system here on our website and not had a reply? We often have very high volumes of messages, requests and tasks, delays may well occur in answering messages if all the team are busy processing orders or dealing with current enquiries, inspecting new parts, picturing parts, listings, there are many tasks bar answering questions/inquiries so please be as patient as possible and do not send multiple messages, we will get to you. Naturally we favour the polite, those most in need, and of course a few pictures of your project or a full blown story about the build is bound to raise some interest and get the team talking with good vibes versus a rude or mundane message that frankly makes us wonder why.... is it Monday.. hey actually we love Mondays! But you get the point. For sure if we do not reply after a few hrs (if urgent) or a few days if a parts enquiry then please do contact us again. Thanks for your patience 👌 And yes we really do love the builds/projects/the stories. In line with UK distance selling regulations you have the right to return an item within 28 days of receipt.
