    I got my letter too. Booked in on Wednesday 21st December @ Mann Egerton Swindon. I'm hoping that they will just replace them, if they come back and say they are fine I will be very disappointed as the problem could occur at any time and they are already admitting there is a problem so fingers crossed it will come back with all new injectors. @ Bombanella the letter is from Volkswagen but it had VOSA on the Envelope and "Important information about your vehicle enclosed".

    I got my letter last Tuesday, 3 days after my Passat threw up a fault with Injector #2. It was booked in today and thankfully they replaced all 4 for me!!

    So how do they find you?

    Having bought my '57 Passat second hand and not taken it to a VW dealer for servicing, how do "they" know Ive got one?

    The DVLA should know that you are now the registered owner of a '57 plate Passat. VW would just check with them who the latest owner of selected cars are and then contact them.

    Might be worth while calling VW Custromer Services and having a chat with them, as I got the impression from my local VW dealer that the dealers have been tasked with contacting cutomers to whom they have sold/service any affected cars.

    What is the affected range of cars? I thought it was the bkp engine'd ones? As I have got a 2006, had 1 injector go but have extended warranty so they 'only' charged me for the loom.

    As posted on here by Crasher

    The following vehicles with the engine codes listed are affected.

    Passat 3C 2006-2008 with the BKP, BMA, BWV, BVE, BMR, and BUZ engines

    Golf 5 2006-2009 with the BMN engine

    Touran 2006-2010 with the BMN engine


    **** - you should be able to claim back your costs for the loom BTW.

    It will be a 2006 model if it is a Passat 3C so yes it is included. VW will recover your car to the nearest dealer and take it from there for free.
