Recently had the Windshield replaced on our 18 R. We insisted on VW glass. Only thing I've noticed is some slight oozing of the goo inside. We didn't have it recalibrated and the lane departure works fine as do the Adaptive Cruise.
Recently had my windshield replaced due to large crack from rock. 2017 golf R with DAP. I went to the dealer to have it done, but they do have to have a \"window\" company come in as they do not install glass. However, with the OEM front windshield and install I paid $540 otd. I think with the OEM glass and an installer they has done these before, which I did check beforehand, I think that's a pretty good price. No calibration was required as I used OEM glass which contains required guides for DAP install. So far no issues and DAP related features working just as before.
No VW experience, but did have to replace the windshield on a 2016 Mazda 6 with all of the driver aids/cameras/sensors...same as the Golf R w/ DAP. I went with a local Novus guy who had good reviews. He's an owner/operator and did a great job. My insurance paid for an OEM windshield since the car was less than 18 months old.
I've noticed a similar problem with the windshield in my 09 CC. Both the stock windshield and the replacement one (an oem VW replacement) that they put in after my accident have like a rippling effect to them that's noticeable when your looking out towards the passenger's side when making a turn. The ripples go from side to side.
I have one that has chips and one of the chips started cracking and now it’s going across my windshield ???? and according to car fax the previous owners replaced it twice before.
Had a 16 CX-5 GT and the windshield cracked really bad on the highway when a Corvette zoomed right pass it. This was in Florida.
Ive gotten my windshields changed for 3x in 1year. Mazda cx30 2020.
I'm on my 3rd on my 2019 Mazda6.
I have a 2018 cx-5 and got a chip in my windshield after about a year. Just last week, I noticed yet another chip in the windshield. Frustrating to say the least.
In the first three months after buying my Mazda 3 I got 3 rock chips. Replaced the windshield, got another rock chip a week later.
