Has he received the VLC yet? If not he will need to tax it for the first time to trigger the release of the VLC and this may then potentially fix it. Just a guess though.

He won't be issued the log book until he taxes the car for the first time. The motortax.ie PIN is usually the last 6 or 7 digits of the car's VIN for newly registered cars.
