I thought it only applied to the 170 engines?

This thread needs moving to the Mk5 General area - this section is surely for nif-naff off-topic chat.

yeah its happening, 2 people i know have called VW and will get 3 new injectors installed and refunded for the 1 injector they both had replaced.
Both Passat 140`s.    good news for the derv owners and takes a big cost and worry away.
