Hood release lever and cable broke |
95000 mi | Check engine light came on and was diagnosed as a faulty or stuck exhaust flap. VW replaced this under a special "extended" warranty program for that particular part. No cost out of pocket |
112000 mi | Problem: Fuel door would not open. Tried cycling the door locks. Fix: Using something soft (bicycle tire levers, spring type wooden clothespin (separated), nylon trim removal tools), pry the rear side of the door open (rear side opens, front side is hinge). I used a wooden clothespin I had in the glove box. Required both wood pieces to pry. Silicone spray to lube latch mechanism. I had no warning this was going to happen. It is the first really hot day (102oF) ... not sure if that had anything to do with problem. |
