Scirocco Central

thanks for reply,away to pick car up today,also receiving extra warranty as goodwill.

has any sirocco owners have had to get a new engine fitted,my roc has only 17000 miles on a 59 plate 1.4 tsi 160.when in to dealer with only a sensor in exhaust light coming on,when tested 7 faults appeared,water pump,backfiring,alarm fault,injectors to be repaced.this was the 2nd water pump repaced...

When you say failed can you elaborate ? dealer carried out the 2454 product enhancement and updated the software of the engine control module,checked for fault with rep,power assistence steering very poor,checked vw tpl and found software update apliciable to fault,updated as required and re adapt ...

total failure like when no engine on.i was going down a hill at the time,very scary.

driving the other day my brakes failed for a few seconds,this happened twice with me now,has any owner had the same problem,will contact dealer in the morning.

scirocco is hopeless in thick snow,always have a shovel in boot , last 2 days car has been stuck and had to be dug out.

I ordered my scirocco on 11th july2009,just been told today car will be built this week 11 weeks later,will take 4 weeks before i get my car,so 15 weeks in total,original delivery was for sept 2009,big lies? kev ritchie.
