I called VW lookers in Teesside earlier, where my recent gti purchase has its service history from, and they confirmed it had the recall done in 2008 and they called it fuel system software update..when i asked if that was the coilpack recall the girl said 'I assume so!!' I had to leave it at that as was at work but does that sound right??
I think she mentioned a recall code....something like 25k6 although I could have remembered that bit incorrectly!!
