Diesel accessory package delay
Good mornings,
Is anyone else still waiting for their diesel accessory package that was offered back in June?
Or perhaps have heard further information regarding the delay on this?
The package contains the nudge bar, driving lights (& harness), mats, headlight protectors and rear tray thingy.
Mine was ordered late June as part of the new vehicle purchase, however the dealer says they haven't received it yet from Nissan. I know 2 months isn't really a long time in the auto industry, but it is still frustrating that my exy still isn't dressed up the way she is supposed to be. The latest news is that the packages are delayed waiting for the driving light wiring harness (diesel).
Why would the diesel harness be different to the petrol?
I'll be back at the dealer again tomorrow (changing the oil at 5000km) but as they haven't called me I don't expect there to be any more news on the acc.

Re: Diesel accessory package delay
Surely they can fit all the other accessories and then fit the harness when it arrives.

Re: Diesel accessory package delay
Unfortunately I have to wait for the entire package. Its not an issue of how long she's in dock for, but because it was offered as a package it has its own part number and Nissan insists that the package be delivered rather than having dealers utilise individual accessory items.
A previous message that was shown to me indicated that in mid July a shipment was arriving in Melbourne. But nothing has been heard of that shipment - they've probably ended up on someone else's exy.
The parts manager at the dealer sent another message to nissan this morning and we were shocked that he's received a reply already.
Nissan is waiting on delivery of the rear protection tray from their supplier, which will possibly be at the end of week.
Interesting how the delayed part has changed (I was informed a month or more ago that the harness was missing).
Once again, the fact that it has to be a package is unfortunate, because the main items requiring installation (nudge and driving lights) are theoretically available. The rear protection tray doesn't require "installation". But the dealer's hands are tied.
I guess we'll see what happens next week.

Re: Diesel accessory package delay
Andy,
Tell them that since they weren't able to provide you with a car you have initially ordered (which has this package), you will now be asking them to upgrade your car to the Series 3 T31 and accept their apology with it. That should get them moving

Re: Diesel accessory package delay
Great idea Jalal! Except I'm not sure they'd quite buy off on that. However I could suggest to them that in recompense for having to wait so long that swap over my wheels for the Series 3 wheels.
Got the subaru back from the panel benders now. Just got to sell it so I can buy a set of bash plates.

Re: Diesel accessory package delay
Yay!
Got the package on Toot Toot on Tuesday.
So she's had a bit of a facelift. Nudgie with bright eyes added. Glasses to protect her eyes, and a hot'n'smokey plastic thingy to protect the bonnet.
Inside she's got the mats now and also the mud tray in the back. Maybe some of the stuff won't slide around as much now.
Only took over 3 months, but finally happened.
:-)

Re: Diesel accessory package delay
A freebie from Nissan? You're joking aren't you Jalal?
Nissan probably think I should feel priveleged to have received the package this year. They aren't going to give anything away for free.
