Import to VW 2013 from DWG (from WYSIWYG)

Recently upgraded to VW 2013 from 2010. I have a client that uses WYSIWYG and exports those files to a DWG. I had no problem importing in 2010 but now with 2013 and the same in 2014 when I import there is some information that doesn't transfer correct. Seems some items drawn in black shows up in white. so on a white background they are very easily missed (or seem to be missing). Switching the background to black has the same affect. Is there an import setting I'm missing? Any thought would be great.

Thanks

If you go to File > Document Settings > Document Preferences and enable Black and White Only after the import, do the colors change?

(However, I do recall a change being made to how colors from DWGs were handled sometime after 2012, but Ill have to check with someone about the specifics.)
