I've had my 96 Passat TDI for over 8 years with no problems until the fuel pump started leaking oil and fuel. Until I started reading this forum, I thought the best place to take the car was to the dealer because everyone else I talked to didn't seem to know anything about the car. Well, the dealer replaced the pump and timing belt (it took 4 days not including the time to get the parts) and now the car won't start and blows alot of white smoke. He wants me to buy a new ECM -- but if the car started fine before I took it in why would I need a new computer. I brought the car home. Any other options for me?
I live close to Raleigh, NC.
