1 Other Fuel System problem

Failure Date: 01/17/2025

My bosch cp4 fuel pump failed causing my engine to stall while turning at a very busy/fast intersection. This can occur at speed without any warning of sudden failure, putting everyone on the road at risk. Fault code p0087 and p0191 were present, along with a flashing glow plug. Following ea no. : ea11-003 I removed the fuel metering valve and observed and documented metal shavings. The failed component is still installed on my vehicle as I will be having it serviced shortly. The fact that this same component has been recalled very recently in many domestic trucks, but not in the 600,000 vw/Audi vehicles it is installed in is concerning. Ea no. : ea11-003 date opened: 7-Feb-2011 date closed: 27-Mar-2015 the date this analysis was closed was months before the dieselgate scandal broke, leads me to question its credibility. This repair is very expensive as a whole new fuel system needs to be installed, with the same questionable pump.

2 Other Fuel System problem

Failure Date: 09/17/2023

Twice since hitting 50k miles, my high pressure fuel pump has failed, resulting in complete and sudden loss of power midst driving. Vw says that it is a warranty issue, but, has no real guidance or promise that it will be fixed. I do not feel comfortable driving the vehicle until we know why this issue is happening and how to fix.

Fuel pressure malfunction vw poorly designed the fuel pump when the fuel pump goes out it shoots metal shavings into the whole fuel system causing the car to lose fuel pressure and causing the car to shut off. Had the car towed into vw and they told me the whole fuel system hd to be repaired at my expense at an estimate of $9000. Vehicle speed dropped drastically I had no acceleration and car ended up shutting off in trafficc.

5 Other Fuel System problem

Failure Date: 11/05/2019

Warm or cold engine. Light throttle use similar to in town and highway driving conditions any gear (in manual transmission) around 10-40 mph steady speed and when transitioning from acceleration to coast to acceleration, and occasionally under hard acceleration car seems to "hiccup" or lose power and go through a throttle cut and follow on "confused" state (pulsing on and off the throttle) requiring the operator to let off the throttle until it stops being "confused". Could cause accident due to inability to accelerate if needed or unexpected "hiccup" causing someone who is being tailgated to be rear ended. Through checking publicly available forums I have found several complaints from users with responses indicating owners of this model tdi motor may be experiencing these same symptoms and when taken to vw (according to online forums) can take anywhere from 1 day to 1 month for them to come back with "we don't know what it is". Software fixes when done do not seem to fix the issue completely (acording to forums) nor does "purging" soot by doing high rpm (above 4000rpm) appear to fix the issue permanently with the issue coming back afterwards. Through commuting in my vehicle ~1500 miles per month I experience the pulsing every day at all speeds from 10-40 mph with low/steady throttle input when maintaining a steady speed. I also experienced the "confused" symptom today after an emergency stop at highway speeds necessitating a hard acceleration afterwards which I could not complete due to the engine cutting and acting "confused" around 3000 rpms in 3rd gear. Symptoms do not appear to incapacitate or immobilize the car and appear to be more of an "annoyance" but could effect safety and long term reliability with the constant loading and unloading motion of parts in the drive line. No indicator or alarm lights lit. Google tdi hiccup and 2013 tdi hiccup for forums.

6 Other Fuel System problem

Failure Date: 12/03/2018

Dear sirs; the washington state attorney general advised that I contact you in regards to Volkswagen group of America 2. 0-liter class action settlement my claim made during the recall was accepted then later denied. I now have no incentive to have the car modified to conform with the environmental standards the rest of the car industry must abide by. Also, I had gone through the trouble of buying another car, which I needed for work, in anticipation that Volkswagen would honor the contract they made with me. I believe their ultimate denial of my claim was intentional deception by Volkswagen group and their representatives on the claims committee to avoid paying me the $20,900 they had previously agreed to pay and were in fact required to pay by law, under the class action settlement. I am most likely not the only citizen who was damaged by Volkswagen's deception and fraud in creating a false and misleading �deadline� for this settlement�a settlement which was designed to repay consumers who were affected by Volkswagen's original deception and fraud regarding the emissions on the cars they sold to us. Respectfully yours, andrew mellon 317 32nd Ave seattle, wa 91822 206-909-3474 andrew_mellon@hotmail. Com.

7 Other Fuel System problem

Failure Date: 08/30/2016

My wife and her mother were out shopping in san diego. They suddenly experienced engine malfunction and subsequent stall of our 2013 jetta tdi sportwagon. This resulted in our vehicle blocking a two lane busy boulevard. This street is a no stopping anytime roadway clearly marked with signs. My wife christine, pulled to the far right of the shoulder as possible. This was a frightening and dangerous experience for my wife and mother in law. The vw was totally dead and required towing to a vw dealer repair facility. The service rep at vw diagnosed the issue immediately when the details of the malfunction were explained. Apparently, this issue has been known and thoroughly investigated. I am shocked to find out the problem is extensive with the tdi engines from Volkswagen. How could I have not been notified of this potential dangerous situation?.
