Earlier this year I bought myself a new scandal 2014 TDI JSW (GSW in Canada) and am loving the purchase so far.
In doing my research on TSB's completed on the car, I learnt about 19J9 Disable engine block heater which disabled the factory block heater due to a fire concern. I confirmed that my car had that completed.
I tried asking VW Canada about the recourse owners had if their block heater was just disabled, and they insisted there was no further action taken on the cars and they should all be permanently disabled.
I then came across 19K4 - Restore Engine Block Heater Functionality in a thread. When I mentioned this code to VW, they had no idea what I was talking about.
So, with winter right around the corner, I was trying to get some more information about this and was wondering if this community knew anything about it? Thanks very much!
