erWin

Looking for a bit of advice.

erWin - where will the campaigns relevant to my car show up? I paid my 5 euros yesterday and spent an hour bouncing around the site, but couldn't find a "recall".

Either the DSG campaign doesn't affect my car, or I couldn't find it.

Where should I have looked?

It is not the most user friendly site...

Thanks, for future reference.

I just went to VW and asked them to do it for me as they said it should have been done on all 7 DSG gearboxs. Save yourself the money and time and just book it in. I noticed some improvements but nothing great, slightly better shifting in lower gears, however it could be a placebo haha

Hey Rob, just ring the Dealer with your VIN or Rego number. Trust me, it will need doing.
I was a bit unsure if it would make a difference, but noticed it was smoother on take off and less jerky at low speeds.
The recall is for all 7 speed DSG's as far as I'm aware.
Takes about an hour or so, but worth the time. Or they can do it at next service if you ask.

Rob, it depends on the build and delivery date of your vehicle. It's possible it was included in the software of your vehicle when it was delivered already, this could be why it doesn't show up on erWin. Once you punch in your VIN, any relevant service campaigns, recalls etc that are applicable to your VIN will come up.

Thanks, guys,

That answers that question. I was expecting I would need it, as at low speeds, feels like the engine is lugging, especially when cold.

Cheers!

Can anyone buy access to erWin?

[gavs]

Yep, you sure can.

It was applied to my Feb/2012 Polo when I brought it in for something else so I imagine it covers almost all of them.
