2002 JETTA TDI WAGON; I HAVE HAD 6 GLOW PLUGS REPLACED THEN TOLD THAT THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT WAS FOR A BAD GLOW PLUG HARNESS. DEALER IN BUFFALO TOLD ME THAT THE OEM HARNESS WAS MADE FROM INFERIOR MATERIALS AND MANY FAIL, BUT NO RECALL HAS BEEN ISSUED; NOW FACED WITH $150 PARTS AND LABOR TO REPLACE THIS DEFECTIVE HARNESS. *TR

I OWN A 2002 VW JETTA TDI (DIESEL). AT 49,500 MILES, THE ENGINE STOPPED RUNNING. THE PROBLEM WAS A CLOGGED FUEL INTAKE SYSTEM. THE CAR IS STILL UNDER WARRANTY. I WAS TOLD THAT THE WARRANTY DOES NOT COVER THIS PROBLEM, AS IT IS A MAINTENANCE ISSUE. I CALLED THE VW HEADQUARTERS, AND THEY EXPLAINED THAT THIS PROBLEM SHOULD NOT OCCUR IF SCHEDULED MAINTENANCE WAS PERFORMED. I HAVE DONE ALL OF THE SCHEDULED MAINTENANCE, AT A GREAT EXPENSE. FINALLY, VW HAS AGREED TO PAY HALF OF THE $520.00 BILL TO CLEAN THE FUEL INTAKE. AFTER DOING WEB RESEARCH, THIS SEEMS TO BE A PROBLEM FACING MANY VW TDI OWNERS. BECAUSE VW TOLD ME THIS PROBLEM SHOULD NOT OCCUR WITH ROUTINE MAINTENANCE, I BELIEVE THAT VW IS NOT HONORING THE WARRANTY BY PAYING THE ENTIRE EXPENSE.*AK
