Hi, I’ve also been effected by this emissions scandal, my car was recalled in November and a couple of weeks again my car lost power, the next day it would start, called AA and they informed me it was my EGR valve fault. I rang my local VW garage and they informed me that my cars wears not affected with the recall. Then I started search the net and found Hypermiller articales and other customers being affected after they had there emissions recalled. When I booked my car in they advised me that it would cost me ÂŁ100 for the hour diagnostics check, after putting the phone down I rang VW Custer services told them what had happened to my car and that I had read the reviews on this website they have wavered ÂŁ100 and once the car has had its diagnostic check I will be ringing them back with the outcome.
I brought this car branded new in 2012 and never had any trouble with it until now, it not even done 40,000 miles yet, one lady owner. I have spoken to Karl and he has advised me that I have a good case for them to carry the work out free due to the emissions fault.
I will update you very soon of the outcome
