Just to let you fellow TDI owners know, I have a 2000 A4 Jetta TDI that is rusting on the right front fender from the inside out. VW won't do a thing about it .
I wrote the story in the general discussion area if you care to read it.
Bottom line, most of us are out of any mechanical warranty now but we still have the 12 year unlimited mile rust warranty. You might as well consider it useless. I have confirmed by 2 body shops wha they describe as rust from the inside out and VW still claims it is the owner's fault as they see it as a stone chip causing it.
Take it for what it's worth, Volkswagen promises the world but when it comes down to warranty work, they won't give you the time of day.
I hope this helps someone here if they ever need rust warranty repairs.
