NEW FSI recalls just released

[jhines_06gli]

The fuel pressure sensor campaign is only for certain VIN ranges. There was a campaign already done 3 or so years ago that was ONLY for 2007 cars. All of there VIN #s that were in that campaign have already been replaced and will not be replaced again under this one. And for some reason most 2006 cars do not have this new fuel sensor campaign either.......so maybe VW knows that only certain production cars had the "faulty" sensors in them and those will be the ones replaced. But probably 15% of the FSI cars that we do here at our dealer have the fuel sensor campaign, so not very many when looking at the big picture.

i spoke with my local dealership in Victoria BC and they mentioned these are only extended warranties. If a MIL light appears and one of these issues is to blame, they replace. Otherwise, if it ain't broke they won't fix it.

Hmmm very weird. So I contacted a few other dealers & 1 of them came back with the following about my GTI.

""I verified your vin number and you do have 3 outstanding safety actions which are 17D2,

24W2 and 24W3. The PCV safety action you do have and its 17D2. And for OL FSI engine we

don't have that here at are dealer.""

Anybody know what these codes are for?

I also emailed VW Canada and they came back and said the following,


""Thank you for contacting Volkswagen Canada Customer Care and bringing your inquiry regarding open recalls to our attention. Your satisfaction is of the utmost importance to us and we appreciate your time in allowing us to assist with this matter.

At this time we have reviewed your VIN specific information and we would like to advise that there are currently no open recalls on your vehicle. After reviewing further information regarding your VIN, I am happy to advise of the following warranty extensions:

Currently there are no recalls regarding the PCV valve, only warranty extensions.""

Nobody knows whats actually going on clearly

^^ weird, i called my dealer, asked him to run my VIN and asked him about march RVU's and he found them for my VIN right away, goin in after work today to get my pcv+pipe replaced. i already got my flapper motor replaced a month ago under extended warranty .

i think the key is not to use the word 'recall' , just ask for RVU's or give them the campaign codes to look up, ask more than one dealers .

Thanks again

I'm at the dealer now getting the pcv system updated under the campaign. I had the intake flap motor done not long ago when the code came up.

Would you happened to know what the VIN range is on the fuel sensor campaign? I do have an early '07 build GTI.

[HotRodDodge]

Just picked mine up from Richmond Hill VW, had all four coils changed, intake flap motor, pcv changed,pcv pipe, both seat airbag harness repaired, sensor on the hpfp and a free wash! All free of charge, well actually it cost me $42 because they had to take my air intake off to get at the intake flap motor and because its not stock they had to charge me for that.

Really? they charged you? When the dealer by me did my intake flap motor not too long ago they didnt even bat an eye with my filter on a stick.

[xtravbx]

Makes sense for a dealer to recover extra costs incurred to them. (on paper at least because you know it didn't really cost them any extra time.)

[Humble Mechanic]

Its not uncommon to charge a little extra for that type of stuff. It really depends on what it is. Just part of paying to play I guess.

[derekjl]

Just had the PCV and flap motor done on mine and all I can say is WOW. It's like a totally different car from what I was getting used to over the past couple of months. I was losing quite a bit of power. I highly recommend asking the dealer to perform these recalls.

Ya I wasn't to worried about the $42 bucks even tho its 1 bolt and a hose clamp to remove the intake and I'm sure it would take longer to take the engine cover and all the stock air box and crap off but either way I got a pile of work done for free

[Cndnmax]

Does anyone have the Documents for these recalls? Or an email from VwoA stating the are recalls and not extended warenty?
I've called VWoA and they state that they are warenty extensions. I asked if the were required vehicle updates and they told me only my dealership could tell me... Ok. Dealership tells me they are only warenty extensions.

[xtravbx]

For my car, the PCV was a service campaign, and it was something they did without it showing signs of failure.

The flap motor for me, still just comes back as an extended warranty.

Depends on your VIN range, if things are going to be actively taken care of - or if its just an extended warranty for now.

No big deal. If it fails, it will get replaced.

[erball]

Took mine in today (2006 CPO GLI) for on of my headlight igniters going out. They told me I had the flapper motor recall (they called it a recall).

Getting it back later today, I'll report.

[azunderg]

Called the dealer w/my VIN and they're doing PCV system and IMRC.

[KennyGLI]

I set an appointment for 9am tomorrow. i had no clue about the RVU's, until i got a call from the service department asking me to bring in my car. im curious to see how the car will ride after the parts are replaced.

Just picked mine up after they completed both TSBs... They had the car for four days while they figured out what the TSBs actually were.

It promptly popped a CEL on my way into work.

Need to take it home and scan it tonight.

[theronin]

i know i may be bumping an old thread, but i just bought my 07 FSI 2 weeks ago used, i went into the dealer to get a verification of a coil pack recall work order to show to dmv. while they ran my vin for it, they informed me that i had some free recall work due to me. I was floored. They had her for about 2 hours, did the imrc, and the pcv valve, also flashed the ecu, all free. Couldn't believe it.

this is the "newest" car ive ever owned my first dealer interaction. so far vw is impressing the hell outta me. they may be making me a customer for life.

[WatchMyDub]

I think I qualify for this RVU since I just got a flyer In the mail, but the flyer never stated what RVU.
My only concern is that I replaced the oem PCV valve with the eurojet PCV replacement at like 7,000 miles (I'm at 74,000). And I'm not exactly stock. I Wonder if they'd refuse service.

It depends on the dealership.

Since your not stock, its not updated parts anyway. Have them do the recall, but ask them to save your parts

Does anyone know where I can find a place to order cam follower? or if there is a DEALERSHIP word for it? I hate it that I drive my car alot all the issues out of the warranty extensions lol 180k here

Wow, 180k miles! I recommend ECS Tuning for the cam follower.

[gotgli]

Awesome thanks. What about this pcv deal I need to replace?

[derekjl]

ECS should have that "kit" as well. I think it comes with the actual valve, a pipe, and a gasket. If the one you currently have has malfunctioned, you will notice a slight improvement in MPG and performance after replacement. I would look into replacing your diverter valve as well.

[gotgli]

Ya I did that already. But hey thanks alot man.

[derekjl]

Ya I did that already. But hey thanks alot man.

If you haven't already done so, you should look around your area for someone that has a VCDS diagnostic tool. They really come in handy. I would do a scan of the entire car and see if you have any fault codes, etc. If you browse around this specific forum for long enough, you will see that the most common problems with the FSI are (in no particular order):

1- diverter valve
2- fuel pump
3- PCV valve
4- camshaft
5- intake flap motor
6- cam follower
7- carbon buildup on the valves

[TonyM702]

Thank God for this forum... I got my PCV valve replaced for free after reading about here right on time. Some ass mechanic was trying to charge me $500.00 to make my engine light on disappear!
