I recently wrote how I had the discussion about dirty diesel fuel from a truck stop from my "reputable VW dealer in Allentown Pa". Well today the car died on the highway, only about three weeks from when the experts claimed the injection pump failed! The same identical symptoms and guess what I bought the fuel from a "non truck stop" since the car was apparently fixed. Now what will they say?? Any ideas? The car sat for about 4 days in the cold. It sat all night in this very cold weather. It started in the AM and drove about 20 miles to work. At 11:00 am the car started for home and about 5 miles into the return trip there was no throttle reponse and the car quit. I cranked it periodically and no fire. I also noticed that the clear line to the injection pump seemed to be mostly empty. Well long story short, I attached a not so nice note along with the tow truck driver as well as gave the so called dealer a heads up call on the answering machine so when they open the doors in the AM they will know how happy I was to get stuck with this car again in the cold!!!!!
