Simple question just to get an idea of how many injectors I can expect to replace :( I've had one already
One of mine went last June/July time - been fine since (touches wood)
All of mine....
First failed April 2010 (69,000 miles)
Second failed September 2010 (76,000 miles)
Third failed April 2011 (90,000 miles)
Fourth showed errors and replaced April 2011

Sorry to hear chaps, on those responses I can at best expect one more to go at worst 3!!!
I'm looking at a vw warranty which hopefully will cover the injectors. I'm even considering a step down to a Kia Ceed for 12 months (things must be bad) not the best car but its reliable and a 7 year warranty
vw must do something about this:mad:
They did. CR engine.Quote:

Nope I suppose it don't and the budget will not stretch to a VW with CR engine at the moment.
Does anyone know where else this engine was used (audi, Skoda etc) so I can avoid
October 2007 / 57 plate. I've owned it since new and have a full VW service history!Quote:
