Mine has. Been perfect. Bit of oil burn during run in, but nothing since. (may 2012 build)

It is a good car. Better than a lot of cars have paid far more for. Fun to drive, well built apart from the mirror switch and different.

I know what you mean. I offended them by questioning the high oil consumption in the first month. Once they have your cash!...

I spoke to my dealer today for an update but their link to VW was down, so no update!

They should try the phone ... Old fashioned I know.
One thing I find odd. If there is a fix and there is a genuine design fault why no proper recall?

Sounds good! I was midly worried when it used oil in the first 2k miles - but seems ok now Hope everyone gets theirs sorted quickly. I see a lot are coming up for sale recently.

I have no idea - someone on here said it was old engine, but not sure how they knew. it is running fine though and now no burn at all (fingers crossed it stays like that!) Was built late May/Early June.

Mine left the factory in June - after the initial 1 litre top up its not used a drop and now on 5k miles.
Looks promising?

This is the one mate, this is one of the nicest 6R's i've seen! http://www.vehicleimagezoom.r66.co.uk/?Theme=Volkswagen&DefaultImage=Volkswagen&Id=602594442 It is a lovely 6R, just needs coilovers or springs fitted and it would be perfect! :P I think I get thrown about in mine enough with s...

You won't hear any more.

Mine is within tolerance, so guess not for me.
To be honest when I asked about the high consumption they were quite rude.

I am not bothered though - I knew the car might have issues and mine is not too bad. It might settle.

They wouldnt give me any free - I have only used 1 litre in 3k miles though, so not too bad?

Good find, looks like vw hadnt put photo up.
