I have been researching replacing the DPF. It seems that the cheaper rebuilt DPF available through VW is NLA. Is this true? ECS Tuning still has a listing, ID Parts has a listing, but all the other dealer sites says NLA. I called the local parts dept. They said NLA. Donald

Update on my other question. It would not come on for my wife. I went out later and it worked fine. An hour later, it would not come on. On her drive to work, it came on after 10 minutes of driving. On her way home it came on after 5 min of driving. Once it comes on, it stays on. I did a few...
