I might still give it a shot. Considering I had 4 DPF replacements under warranty and drove several months (combined) on bad DPFs (dealer delays in scheduling), I’m afraid that carbon buildup in my turbo is pretty likely. From what I’ve read, either my VNT sensor is bad, or the vanes in the...

might be worth a shot. How much?

Worth an ask then. Thanks again for your help!

Hey, oilhammer, I saw your help on this post too: https://forums.tdiclub.com/index.php?threads/nuisance-code-p2564.508690/ Do you think tuning out the VNT sensor is an option on this car also? I've been looking more into replacing this sensor, but I was afraid it could be a number of other...

Wow somehow I didn’t even see the bottom half of your post. So sorry! And thank you!

Do you think I could get away with just cleaning it? I couldn’t find a part number or source for a replacement… Also any leads on a good you tube video would be appreciated.

2012 Golf, 131k miles I need help chasing the cause of an intermittent P2563 I've been seeing. Here are the occurrence conditions: *flashing glow plug light pops up and turns off daily *It comes on when braking, turns off after I restart the car *Also car must be hot for it to come on *First...

Update: I went in for the DPF replacement and the dealer assured me that they would look into the cause. They filed a help ticket and VW came back and told them to check for a boost leak... and voila! They also replaced a sticky EGR valve. I have improved mileage now, which makes me happy. I...

Good to know! I just have to convince the dealer to actually replace all these things...

No they did not. I'm not sure exactly what was replaced when they did the fix either...

This is super helpful. I've also been wondering about the glow plugs with the long crank.

That's give me hope that it could be fixed... but I know that it does cycle pretty often. Did yours not cycle at all?

I almost don't want to, it would ruin my day:(

Hi everyone! I have a 2012 Golf 6M- I do have the recall fix with this car. My CEL came on while I was driving to work last Friday. The dealer was nice enough to check it out the same day, and told me I would need a new DPF... which is surprising considering that the dealer replaced it just a...
