    Ring VW Customer services on 0800 333 666

    By now if it was affected, it's probably had them done. Check for any stickers in the spare wheel well or service book for workshop actions.

    If its a 140 then they're not affected, only the 170s were iirc.

    many thanks. VW say it had all four changed in Jan 12 (I have no recollection of it though!). An injector failed last thursday but VW say it's out of the guarentee period so I'm not covered, the car's only done 56k since new and only a few k since Jan 12, needless to say I'm gutted. I think I could manage the mechanical side of it but will I need to 're-set' any electronics if I replace it myself? Thanks again

    Any genuine VW part has a 2 year guarantee so yes they're correct when they say you're outside of the guarantee period.

    I don't think you need to code or reset anything as long as you use like for like.
