Scirocco Central

Result! VW have now come back with a 50% goodwill position. Seems talking to a person instead of a computer has made a difference.

Blower- 2010. VW saying accelerated wear caused by injecting of fuel into engine. Misfiring leading to compression issues then cylinder wear. But only sign was EMS coming on after having no warning at all

Mileage is 48k. Going to speak to them on Monday to get the details. Car belongs to my daughter. Pride & joy etc etc. She is no idiot driver. Annual services at VW dealer.

Agreed, but I think they believe its our fault. Purchased from a non-VW dealer and not in warranty. Apparently no offer of goodwill from VW either.
This after needing to pay £500 just to get the car back in bits!

Hi,
newbie here. Looks like we have to find a replacement engine for a 1.4 TSI 160. Anyone got any recommendations for used/reconditioned engine suppliers?

VW don't want to know. Car is 4 years and replacement estimate is £6k!!
