Just got off the phone with my dealer to check, just in case they had a different update. Turns out my VIN has a recall on the battery. He stated as long as it's under 3 yr/36k it's eligible for replacement. Something to do with the connection was the reason for recall. Needless to say I have an appt. next week for a free battery replacement. My 2016 is at 2 yr/22k. I've had no issues myself other than the time it died while I was fiddling around in VCDS in the garage with the light switch in Auto (clearly my fault) :banghead: Thanks for the free battery replacement VW :thumbup:

Took my car to the dealership last week for warranty work on a leaking water pump and they told me that there was a recall on my battery. Battery was replaced the same day, had no prior notice of the recall before the visit.
My sister's fuel pump was causing poor mileage in her 2015 mk7 golf sel - it eventually failed and was replaced under warranty and the car now gets as advertised...
I could only find the thermostat from VW for roughly $45.
I've had reasonable success with it as well. Between two '06s in our majorly-rust-belt city, I've gotten 3 new fenders, a new trunk, a hatch respray, and a door sill respray.
Jaocobpossibly, great post and information. I was able to use your information and links to figure out what to do about my flywheel clutch on my AZG! Well, sort of anyway...now, at least I know that I too have a 215mm set up. My flywheel is an 068105271, and I have been unable to find one, or any information on it. I finally found out that it was replaced by 038105269 in 2006, so that explains it. I've been searching for clutch options for this for a while, and now I at least know what will be an oem style replacement. I also have a single mass flywheel in my 2001 wagon 2.0. Thanks for posting that information!!!
I’ve done an oil change as well as swapping the spark plugs and coils for brand new ones. The roughness persists!
The stock VW battery in my Jetta was 380CCA, and it started on super cold mornings alot quicker/easier than this 600CCA Everstart ive got in there now.
I have it on the eGolf and the trade off of seeing the heating elements is not worth the benefit. If you ever drive in direct sunlight, you'll see these hundreds of wires reflecting making it very difficult to see.
Brought mine into dealership, the service advisor said they manufacture these rotors out of softer material now so they don't warp down the road. The softer material downside is that they wear faster. I don't believe that at all. If they wear faster, wouldn't it be more even wear and not scored lines in there??
