Consumer Description

I TOOK MY 2006 VW JETTA TDI, 5 SP, 40K MILES TO THE VW DEALERSHIP FOR ITS 40K SERVICE ON 5/27/11. AFTER THE SERVICE WAS COMPLETED, I STARTED THE CAR AND NOTICED IT WAS RUNNING VERY ROUGH (THE CAR WASN'T RUNNING ROUGH WHEN I DROPPED IT OFF FOR SERVICE). MY SERVICE REP TOOK THE CAR BACK TO THE SERVICE TECHNICIAN WHO CHECKED ALL THE FILTERS AND RE-BLED THE FUEL FILTER TO REMOVE ANY AIR BUBBLES THAT MAY HAVE BEEN TRAPPED, WHICH DID NOT FIX THE ISSUE. THE SERVICE TECHNICIAN TOOK THE COVER OFF THE ENGINE AND IDENTIFIED THE THAT THE CAMSHAFT IS WEARING. MAINTENANCE ON THIS CAR IS COMPLETED EVERY 5K MILES AND SERVICED BY THE DEALERSHIP IT WAS PURCHASED FROM.
