    Volkswagen's Clean Air Act violations on 2009+ TDIs spark huge recall, investigations

    When I got rid of my 09 Sportwagen I already had to clean the exhaust flap and just started to hear about the HPFP failures. After having a 01M grenade on me, I knew VW's quality history and lack of support for their customers and decided to cut my losses and move on. I will never own another VW.

    Volkswagen's Clean Air Act violations on 2009+ TDIs spark huge recall, investigations

    You are right on the money with that statement. Too many years of the customers being the guinea pig for VW's engineers.

    2009 Check Engine Light - P048C

    Don't remember the exact number if the code, but it said exhaust flap error. We used the solvent in the tank. If I did it at home I would use Kroil. I think it could be done without a lift.

    2009 Cold Start Scare/Problem?

    Headlight ?

    Anyone with access to a VW parts manual, could you see if the 2010 Jetta headlights are interchangeable with the 2009's. I like the looks of the new ones more than the chrome looking ones on the 09's. Thanks

    Another Jetta '09 TDI "Bad Gas" Horror Story

    51k miles now. Had one no start issue @ 9k miles, dealer changed MAF, no more issues, car stays away from the dealer now. I'm waiting for the Nicktane filter kit to replace the stock one. I had one of those microglass fuel filters on my old gravity fed fuel tank and it was awesome.
