Hello, I am from Portugal and I have bought a Passat 2.0 TDI on November 2005 and this car has been nothing but trouble, along with a lot of others of the same series. All injectors broke down one at a time, faulty from factory as I discovered only from Internet searches, because the brand always tried to avoid responsibility. One time they replaced the gas pump, and there was a hole in it, and they made me travel 30kms back to the garage leaking 50L of gas along the way .. Now to end my final shred of reliance on VW, the oil pump breaks, and kills the engine, the turbo, and a few other components, a problem that also happened on a lot of these series. The garage wants 7000€ only for the engine. Do you know of anyone else who had the same problem and had a favorable outcome? Do you know of any lawsuits won on this issue?
