    From someone that has reported the occurences to vosa ...............

    Update from VOSA

    They have had a meeting today with regards to this issue as it seems to be affecting anything with a 170 engine judging from the reports they have been getting. They want as many people as are affected to step forward and file a report to see how widespread the issue is and officially who's affected by this. They will be contacting VAG shortly and it will take up to 6 weeks to get an official response.

    Let's see them make an excuse to VOSA about FASH now, (if FASH made any difference, we wouldn't have people asking like beggars for goodwill gestures, or getting the fault in the first place!)

    Please please please get other people involved, on other forums or someone you know may have been affected. Even you guys that have had the injectors swapped, please file a report, it takes 2 minutes online and can help everyone.

    I (we) are not after free injectors, I couldn't care less about them at this point. The fact Audi/VAG are STILL letting people drive around with a ticking timebomb IS EVERYONE'S PROBLEM. If they don't sort this problem out and get away with it, they'll be more inclined to sweep other "coincidences" under the rug too.

    Please file, give VOSA the ammo they need, please re-post on other forums, anything with a 170 is affected:

    More and more people are sending forms across so many forums now! We also have a VAG specialist who will be sending VOSA some sample faulty parts... let's keep the momentum on this, I can see people responding to the sticky!

    Remember, VAG technicians can still send forms on behalf of customers, so if you have any turning up, all it takes 5 minutes to make our case even stronger.

    Thanks everyone

    I've just posted my form via the web to VOSA. I had an injector go about a week after picking up my A4 2.0Tdi 170bhp Quattro S Line in January. Luckily it was covered by the dealers 2 month / 2000 mile warranty and they sorted it. Since then it's been fine and other than that I love the car. Aftermarket warranty (Warranty Wise or Warranty Direct) I think is the answer as I don't want the risk of it happening again and shelling out £600-700 a time

    I had a call from them today about my form too. Looks like they are pressing Audi for a resolution, fingers crossed Audi do something about it.

    Let's all hope this results in a recall. Somehow doubt it though. I'm sure Audi/VAG will wriggle out of it somehow.
