wow, I was surprised to hear of an example of over 120K now that sent in the fuel analysis and they approved. I asked VWofA if they could at least agree to analyze my fuel and consider my case, but they would not do anything. I may call them back with this update and see if I can get some...

dan...I really hate that I keep hijacking your thread, but I would be interested in your opinion about what the dealer is saying... They say that "as of late", VW in their warranty repairs are doing the following: Once they inspect the HPFP for signs of metal shavings (not sure exactly what...

mine is similar to dan.falzone, but I did not get the fuel guard (honestly recall no letter?), but it appears it would have mattered not and VWoA assured me when I asked that it would not matter...they were very clear....any one of 3 conditions unmet and it was a no go " 1) over 120k mileage...

SO...my father in law has I believe either a 2011 or 2012 jetta TDI...should he have one of these 2 micron aftermarket filters installed?! Good luck on your work, I will be interested to hear how it goes..

How'd it go? My 2009 tdi sportsgawon now @ 126k miles had this happen Now I do not know what the heck I'll do Vw of A will not pay anything it appears Dealer says they can do the job perhaps with leaving injectors depending on analysis once they get a better look at the pump - but that...

thanks for the supportive responses...I really have no idea what to do....Hutchinson has a good reputation. I spoke to them about the possibility that the injectors could be left and be ok...they were highly highly skeptical and said they would never agree to do it...they suggested to me that...

Year:2009 Build Date: Make/Model:TDI sports wagen Tranny: DSG Mileage: 126,228 Diesel Fuel Source: I mainly get my gas most of the time at a chevron on hwy 31 in hoover, AL near the royal VW dealer, but have gotten diesel from other brand name places on trips over the past 6 years Additives: NO...

I used my meter and checked all fuses in the cabin to the left of the steering column that were labeled in the manual having to do anything with AC....then I checked all the fuses in the engine compartment, I removed and visually inspected them all as well, all looked clean, no signs of...

Our first charge of the system we used an electronic scale - that automated job is sweet!!

When at friends shop yesterday besides running the scan - he repeated evacuation and recharge on a fancy automated thing he rolls around. It did essentially what I first described. It holds 1.15 lbs of freon (525 grams) - when we got up to 0.88 lbs it slowed to a stop - no more would go in -...

One thing I noticed under the hood in fuse box was a black cube that plugs in with the number "100" on it - I assume it's a relay - it was incredibly hot to touch

I pray it's not this electronic control module thing - $$$$$$ My friend tells me that can be uber pricey

Which fuse tells the compressor to do its thing? I checked the ones listed in the manual on the fuses inside the car all looked on visual inspection normal The ones under the hood in the fuse box next to battery - I'm not sure which does what

Yes - it seems this may end up being something small and simple ...... Painful lesson to learn - could be worse I guess

This code came out - a buddy did the scan for me for free :) http://wiki.ross-tech.com/wiki/index.php/00898

Thermal expansion valve was not it either I'm going to get the scan of the AC system done and see what a shop will tell me soon

So my dad wanted me to put on the new expansion valve and see if that did it... I got the two lines off the front pretty easy but I had to give up last night as it got late - not sure how that clave assembly is held into the firewall - I wiggled it a bunch and no budge?

Also - given I put in the new compressor - is it possible the new rcv is sticky or damaged by debris in the system? My next step is to find someone with this VCDs

is this rcv on the compressor?

Where can I get a list of all components of this system including like diagrams that my dad could digest? I think tomorrow I will try and find someone locally to peek at it assuming they would not charge me much to diagnose and quote
