Just got a call to say the car won't be ready tonight, apparently they put in the new injectors/loom, started it and now it's misfiring. They're keeping it overnight.

Heard back from the dealer - yes there is a campaign and yes my car does fall into that category but they would need to get at the Injectors to check their serial number as apparently its possible that I have injectors that aren't on the list. Got it booked in to get checked - will let you know how it turns out.

I got a booking for the 10th at Ian Boettcher Volkswagen, Ipswich. Have heard a lot of good things about Jacob over there, so lets see.

Hmm, So if something happens after the change, would they be liable to fix it??

should be a easy fix.. either issue with loom and vas pc will pick on which injector or they have not seated injector correctly... i saw one that was missing like crazy but it cleared after a good road test...

Oh mate, you've cursed it or spoke too soon or maybe they don't do the same work after all.

I just called vw and they told me my car is available for the replacment. I am also booked in at Ian Boettcher Volkswagen, Ipswich on the 10th of may

Yep Ipswich or Highway would be my immediate Brisbane choices.
Approximately late 2008 VW "started" using double o-ring injectors "in some cars", as far as I can work out from the piddly amount of information VW release about this problem around the globe. You can have a 2008 model that will be fine, or you can have a 2009 model which is affected. If it is early 2008 like mine, that is build date, well you're in the firing line.
This could all be totally wrong, VW won't confirm or deny anything.
