    "Volkswagen New Zealand general manager Tom Ruddenklau said the recall had been scheduled for September, but had been brought forward following discussions with the head office in Germany."

    Bet that was the same for AUS. They have long known and long planned for a late stage recall. Media pressure changed that.

    I just received my letter from VW NZ, advising my MY 13 GTI (built Dec 2012) was not affected by the recall, but this was a courtesy letter to advise that "As customer satisfaction and vehicle safety are our utmost highest priority, we want to ensure our Volkswagen customers can have absolute peace of mind. Volkswagen is extending the gearbox warranty period for all DSG gearboxes from 3 to 5 years (from the date the vehicle’s warranty first commenced) and are offering a free vehicle Health Check for any Volkswagen customer who has any concerns."

    So, that's something at least...
