VW recalls another 92 000 vehicles for camshaft failures

[tigger73]

The only vehicle that may be affected here is the Jetta as it is built in Mexico. And of this model it is only the 155TSI Highline Sport that has the EA888 2.0 litre turbo petrol engine - the others are either diesel or 1.4 twin-charge (which is another story). There is currently some question over whether the GTI is/is not caught up in this recall so if it is then likely the 155TSI engine in the local Jetta would be in need of an updated camshaft. I suspect that there would not be many of these vehicles on the road in Oz as this is only a new model and there would only be a few of these on the road.

The engine plant in Mexico only supplies the North American factories so I think you're pretty safe.
