Are these AI bots coming into a 7 year old thread, registering the day of their singular post that advertises a mortgage broker that's completely unrelated to the topic? Mods, seems like it's time to close this thread...

My situation was with a Touareg and unrelated to this alignment issue.

I wouldn't bet on that...in fact, you got off "easy." In my case, the dealership presented a $2,000 dollar bill and VW agreed to comp 80% of it due to all the trouble I'd been through and when I went in to pay the $400 remainder the counter told me the $2,000 bill was the 20%...that the original...

VWoA claims only "their" independent technicians can diagnose a warrantable repair. They are "independent" only in so far as it's convenient. If you raise the issue of independence, as you have here, they no longer are independent and instead wholly subsidiaries of VWoA. If you want to file a...

Looking back it seems it was covered under the original powertrain. But it wasn't really covered, it was a huge PITA. My Touareg still eats oil now while it didn't before. Better off not having a warranty, imo. At least you can get it fixed by someone or yourself correctly.

Oil cooler leak should be covered under dieselgate.

Unfortunately, the only person in this thread who got any action was Jase and he never came back to give us an update so we don't even know if it's resolved.

I believe that's within spec.

Most, if not all, tuners will update your tune if you buy hardware from them.

The issue I encountered was the VW technicians classified this as normal noise so there was no warranty issue to resolve.

Thanks for this info. If it's still sitting up in there does one need to pull it out and replace or just leave it well enough alone? I've got a 2013 Touareg that has an 8 speed aisin, which will or won't have this issue? I'm looking at a 2016 A6 that sounds like it would have this issue? One...

Sent you a PM.

I just get the set from IDParts and I generally buy all four corners (pads and rotors) at once regardless of the wear.

I understand the nature of the failure better now :) The phrase of it being "like a wheel alignment" is an example to demonstrate it's a mechanical adjustment that can/is misaligned through use rather than system failure. So in the same way that you driving down the road while never hitting...

Yes, no cost to discuss this situation with the class attorneys. They have already been compensated to represent us in regards to settlement warranty coverage. It's not a "consultation" in the way you might be thinking. They already represent us so they need to be informed of these kinds of...

Thanks for that. As I suspected, the closest authorized shops are about 100 miles away. Do you know if the authorized shops give loaners out when a vehicle is brought in for repair? When I need a substantial repair from VW, and I want to risk the dealership's hands on my vehicle, I have to...

The whole thing about them sending a part number in and getting a response from VWoA's warranty team seems to be standard operating procedure based on my similar experience. That said, how the dealership defines the failure plays some role in it. VWoA and their dealerships seem to be trying to...

Yes, that’s the original firm and they are tasked with representing us in situations like this. What you do before calling them depends on your tolerance for BS and how long you want to chase your tail. VW has already shown their hand to you. I waited two months, which was two months too long.
