Warm water dissolves the crystals, but I also used a plastic scraper and vacuumed what I could. I haven’t seen much activity from this site, but currently I’m without VW TDI. I moved across country for a new job and sold both the 2015 Passat and 2015 Touareg. We purchased a 2021 Tacoma for...

Update. She arrived home safely and the car only used maybe a cup of coolant on the 260 mile trip. I found a significant leak on the passenger side rear of the engine (she was looking at the front between the radiator and engine), so probably the water pump. The bottom of the car on the...

2015 Passat losing coolant, no visible leaks, update, probably water pump My wife drove my car from Flagstaff to Tucson on Friday to visit family. She called me this morning and told me the low coolant warning came up on the screen this morning when she started it. The coolant reservoir was...

Here is one of them I drive weekly: http://www.google.com/url?sa=t&rct=j&q=&esrc=s&source=web&cd=1&ved=2ahUKEwi77LaIjKzpAhVOgK0KHd3QBYEQwqsBMAB6BAgKEAQ&url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.youtube.com%2Fwatch%3Fv%3Dkb5b4bciP9g&usg=AOvVaw15lkHMkvZmBLjux7MqSDsy

Another 90K miles and I can tune without losing warranty.

Mine likes to regen on short trips. I tried waiting it out at first, but now I don’t worry about it as I would have to wait for it numerous times per week. My weekly commute to Phoenix is 135 miles each way, plenty of time to regen there, but I’m amazed how often it will start a regen at the...

That is about what I expected them to do. Working in the industry I’ve been in the office for those conversations numerous times.

From the OP’s post, it sounds like it happened all the sudden. The warranty does say “Conflicts concerning the warranty are to be resolved in favor of the consumer.”

Discount Tire does a free rotate and balance every 5K with any tire purchase, I’m not paying for it each time.

Drive it overheating until the head cracks and make them replace the engine then. What about CPO in this case?

2015 cars have more time and mileage on the warranty. 2015 are 11/162K, 2012-2014 are 10 year 3 month/123K.

Did you buy this car from a VW dealer with the CPO warranty? If so it should still be under the 2 year unlimited mileage bumper to bumper warranty until October 2020. Did the overheat and other issues cause a check engine light? If yes, why isn’t this covered under the dieselgate warranty...

Mine is still rolling smooth on the new brakes, about 13K miles on them now. I have noticed that when I get the tires rotated and balanced every 5K miles, the tires end up out of balance and I have to take the back in a couple days, then they are fine for the next 5K. Last time two tires were...

Why not just ask them to do the service?

I stand corrected. I was under the impression that the 3.0L were the only models that were 10 years 3 months/123K miles, like my wife’s Touareg.

If buying CPO from a VW dealership the 2 year unlimited mileage warranty plus the dieselgate warranty to 2024 and 162K miles means there isn’t much to worry about.

I wouldn’t hesitate to get one of the newer cars. My 2015 purchased in November 2017 has been very good from 26K miles to 67K miles now.

My 2015 6MT has been a good car for the 40K miles I’ve put on it. There was a dual mass flywheel bearing issue shortly before the 2 year bumper to bumper warranty ended, they replaced the entire assembly (around $2300) and some bushings up front all under warranty. I paid for a new clutch as...

Usually the insurance totals at 80% of the value, so your numbers are at 88% without any supplementals added to the final bill. I would be prepared for them to total it :mad: You might want to start shopping for another TDI.

My car was missing the glove box key. Ordering one from VW cost me about $70.
