I have a 2012 Passat TDI that had the check engine light came on, checked at autozone for the error code: P0203. It says "Injector circuit open- cylinder 3" Is this likely to be a crazy $1000+ repair? I've read that injectors are pricey. Also can anyone recommend a good Chicago/ south suburbs repair shop?

Made a dealer appointment for Tuesday. So, wife dropped the car at a dealer this morning, and she just got a call that we're looking at a $1700 repair. The only thing they told her was wrong was that the adblue sensor was giving faulty readings, and would need to be replaced.

agarjogger posted:I have never bought a new car, so I just picked out a bunch with good fuel mileage and started from there. My Prius test rides were super bland, while my rides in the Jetta and Passat TDI's were very enjoyable. I definitely care about that kind of thing. I'm 6'1" and have a Passat. I can't really speak to the current Jetta, I looked at a used one 10 years ago and found the backseat a little cramped then. The Passat though (the US version) is plenty roomy. My 6'3" friend can fit in the backseat with me in the front just fine.

So uh, the owner's manual for my 2014 Passat goes from page 104 to 137, no pages in between.

Here's a talk by a couple guys that looked at how the cheating software worked. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xZSU1FPDiao First 20 minutes is mostly dissing the "management did nothing wrong" stance.

Activated my VW bribe today. In other news VW hired the guy that created the compensation packages for 9/11 families and the GM ignition scandal. Article e: 30k mile service came out to $470, which uh was covered by the bribe, but ouch. borkencode fucked around with this message at 03:08 on Feb 14, 2016 |

There's a new recall for 2012-2014 TDI Passats, an improperly sealed connector can start a fire in the underbody. https://consumermediallc.files.wordpress.com/2016/04/rclrpt-16v171-5191.pdf Also your airbag may kill you.
