Isn't the DOC,DPF, and SCR on this engine built into one unit, basically the DPF assembly part number 04L131606G? I wonder if these components are individually replaceable.
This is answered in the disclosure booklet.
although not specifically stated, it should be covered under the revised warranty.Be wary of assuming who pays for the second exhaust hardware replacement, to me wording is clear that the first is paid by VW if needed, but the wording for the second phase requirement implies to me the vehicle owner is responsible .... Still, no way to say for sure unless clarified by legal documents somewhere.

The DOC is a separate catalyst element from the DPF/SCR but it's all in that one housing with one part number (with a retail list price of about US$2 grand). That usually means it's all welded together in one piece. And that means VW's scheduled replacement of the DOC is really a replacement of the entire assembly. And that means we really don't know if it's DOC longevity or DPF/SCR longevity that is at issue here.Isn't the DOC,DPF, and SCR on this engine built into one unit, basically the DPF assembly part number 04L131606G?

Nope...You get one check when phase 1 is done....And another when phase 2 is done. Both are part of the recalls.Be wary of assuming who pays for the second exhaust hardware replacement, to me wording is clear that the first is paid by VW if needed, but the wording for the second phase requirement implies to me the vehicle owner is responsible ....
