Got the same email.......they are definitely worried about their brand. If it suffers any more bad publicity, me tinks there maybe a recall of DSG clutches....fingers crossed for those who are suffering.

All I can say is that any of you even contemplating if you have an issue should register. It's taken a lot o hard work to get to this point so I highly suggest that you all take advantage of the situation... You never know what might happen.
