2013 Passat TDI with 11,500 miles. Check engine light illuminated, dealership checked the codes and replaced the NOX sensor. Is this a common issue out there, I would not expect any issues this early.
Thanks in advance, great site.

Not sure if that has anything to do with something I see as getting more noticeable but even if my VW has sit out in the warm sun all day, when I first start it it up, and start moving, if I'm dong 20mph, it's starts jerking, spitting and surging. After a few minutes, it does go away but is this normal for a diesel?

When cold, 20 MPH in 3rd gear can cause jerking due to the warm-up routine and modulation of the exhaust throttle. Try putting it in manual mode 2nd gear and see if that corrects the problem.

I just posted on a similar thread... have the dealer look for a recent software update for this problem. Mine just installed an update a few weeks back and so far so good.
