MY 2010 CC STARTED FINE. WITHIN 1/2 MILE I NOTICED A SHIMMY, I THOUGHT MAYBE IT WAS A FLAT TIRE. THEN I NOTICED A HORRIBLE SMELL ALONG WITH HEAVY WHITE SMOKE COMING FROM MY EXHAUST. CODE READER STATED THE CAMSHAFT SENSOR WAS BAD AND CAUSED MISFIRE TO 1 AND 2 SPARK PLUGS. PURCHASED THE SENSOR AND NEW SPARK PLUGS WITH NO SOLUTION.

I TOOK IT TO A VW DEALER, WHO REPLACED THE CRIMP CONNECTIONS TO THE FILTER. NOW AGAIN LAST MONTH, THE SAME PROBLEM HAS RECURRED. THE LEAK APPEARS TO BE COMING NOT FROM THE CRIMPED FUEL-LINE, BUT FROM SOME SORT OF QUICK-CONNECT TYPE OF FITTING THAT CONNECTS TO THE LOWER FILTER. NOTE THAT THE PROBLEM ONLY SEEMS TO OCCUR UPON START-UP IN THE MORNING, BUT DISAPPEARS SOME TIME LATER, SO THAT WHEN THE VEHICLE IS TAKEN IN TO A DEALER, THERE IS NO LEAK TO BE OBSERVED.
