    I have 21,XXX miles on mine and this happen after I rotated my tires today. I had gotten a flat on the sidewall on my rear tire about a month ago so I replaced it with a new one and I believe this is happening due to 1 tire having less wear then the other.

    Fuel filter change

    I just replaced mine in less then 10 minutes. I didn't use the software to prime it, but I did fill the corners of the filter with fuel and a little fuel additive. It started right up and I gave it a little throttle to clear the air bubbles and everything is fine.

    AdBlue consumption on Mk7 Golf?

    If you do have a leak have it fixed asap because the DEF crystallizes when its exposed to air and it can also crystallize the lines causing all sorts of emission issues and low NOx conversion codes.

    EA288 - A diesel way forward?

    Resale value in light of recent events

    VW needs to offer a buy back program for all TDI's sold on the market with a lie if they want to keep their reputation in the OKAY zone. I was aware of my negative equity trading in my golf, but it wasn't anything crazy and the down payment was going to cover it.

    fuel filter replacement

    Hey everyone. Do I NEED to use vagcom to prime the fuel filter? If I were to open the top & replace the filter and not use vagcom to prime the fuel system what could go wrong if the canister is already filled to the top with fuel when removing the old filter.

    50-Liter Tank

    They changed it up a little to prevent running the system dry. I usually drive the tach reads the empty white line and 0 miles for quite a while. I'm just a risk taker.

    VW TDI goodwill package: Offers $500 Visa cards & $500 dealer credits to TDI owners

    Reading up on all the class action settlements people had with other companies this is actually something major since EPA got involved including massive cars world wide.
