Consumer Description
I GOT A WARNING LIGHT ON THE INSTRUMENT PANEL INDICATING "DIESEL PARTICULATE FILTER." AFTER A FEW MINUTES, I GOT ANOTHER WARNING LIGHT INDICATING AN OVERHEAT IN THE EXHAUST SYSTEM. I IMMEDIATELY TOOK THE CAR TO THE DEALER. I WAS PRESENTED WITH A BILL FOR $6,800. I HAVE NEVER HEARD OF THAT PROBLEM IN VW'S, SO I WOULD HOPE SOMEONE WOULD LOOK INTO IT. EVERYONE WHO BUYS A VW DIESEL SHOULD KNOW THAT A POTENTIAL EXISTS THAT A CLOGGED FILTER WOULD RESULT IN A $6,800 REPAIR. *TR
