Hello all,
After work today, to my surprise, my car will not start! It has started without hassle or ill symptoms since new, and it has had no warning lights come on during my drive to work this...
Just an update, I took the car to a dealer and they diagnosed a worn selector fork (metal chunks in the oil apparently) which subsequently took out the mechatronics unit. VW provided goodwill cover...
The car is a 2011 (just after the recall that extended to Sep 2011) build, MY12. It's now nearly 2.5 years out of warranty, serviced with independents.
I've booked the car in with a dealer, as...
Hello all,
It would seem the mechatronics unit on my 90TSI has packed up. The gear indicator would flash between the current gear and spanner, and the check engine light is now on.

So it looks to be the fuel line in my case. Thank you all for your input.
Hi,
I had a poke around the hard lines next to the fuel pump this morning and the rattle seems to have gone away. I didn't feel that there was anything loose - so I'm not too sure what's caused...

Thank you.
Hi,
My car has recently started this problem too - 2011 90TSI with DSG, 85000km.
I think it may be the timing chain/tensioner also. Has anyone else had this happen to their 1.4s? Apparently...
Damn, I just noticed this too on sometimes when running over man hole covers, and over a long wave bump (Fifth Gear - Mercedes E-Class quality test (Part 1/4) - YouTube) near my house. Looks I'll...
Hi All,
I've recently just noticed this problem, whenever I go over a small speed bump, at around 7-10km/h, there's a clunk that comes from the front left side of the car. There's no noise when I...
Hello, I've recently ordered a Golf with what should be the 3 year extended factory warranty backed by Allianz included in the deal. Just wondering what kind of documentation is provided for this...
Hello all,
Our family's Mazda6 got written off during the Christmas Day hail in Melbourne, and we have just placed an order for a 90tsi DSG Golf. Looking forward to hopefully a stress free and...
