hi gazza what sort of warranty did you have and who was it through mate they are trying to tell me that it is not a mechanical part that has caused the problem which i dont really understand at all
I have a rolling monthly warranty with VW.
I had a warning light come up and they took the car in and read the error coded but needed to contact VW for more information as they could get a fix from these codes. After a few days they came back to me and I took the car in again. They did some further tests, may have been an oil feed pressure test but I'm not 100% sure.
They then told me that they had to replace the cam chain, tensioner and adjuster but VW wouldn't pay for the cover unless my local dealer could prove damage to the original cover do they put the old one back on.
I have driven the car for about 2000 miles since and no warning light problems and no warning light. (The light used to come on intermittently).
