...(Transporters for the last 20yrs) I’m not sure I’d buy another diesel.
Problem’s with the turbo and DPF last year even with the extendedwarranty was expensive!
I’ve owned this one since December 2018 and it’s got 81000 miles so maybe it’s to be expected?
If I didn’t enjoy driving it so...
I've just taken my 2019 T6.1 into VW for this problem(under extendedwarranty). Bizarrely, it used to work fine but then one day a few months back just started to exhibit this problem, not sure exactly what changed. I've even reset the head unit but it hasn't fixed it. Even a new phone in the...
...- just search as it's a very common theme - just be aware that there is the All In Plan (with servicing and breakdown) or just the extendedwarranty:

Yes I think my VW servicing days are over now that the van 6 years old and out of extendedwarranty.
They stated the part was £550. Then there were other parts which turned out to just be a washer then there was dreaded VAT and of course their labour.
...root cause problem being the piston rings fault.
Bought the van 11 months ago from an independent dealer, with an RAC 'Platinum' extendedwarranty.
I'm kicking myself, as when buying I ignored the patchy service history & CXEB horror stories, almost in blind hope that "it wouldn't happen...
To answer my own question; 2 years. Just had another flush and new front pipe following an EML. VW wouldn’t do it under the extendedwarranty but did give 50% goodwill on parts and labour so £200 all in. I’m guessing next step will be to replace the valve and cooler if it comes back again

Oh also VW have offered me 2 year extendedwarranty for £1100.00 does anyone know if this would be included? They say electrics are included but don’t know if this included the radio or not.
...issue they need to strip the gearbox down and whilst they are very confident it will be a mechanical fault and covered under the extendedwarranty, they need me to authorise £575+VAT for 5-6hrs of diagnosis costs in case VW don’t approve the works.
I’ve disputed this risk with the dealer...
...started getting underboost codes, which was later diagnosed to be a seized small turbo. This was replaced under warranty (a dealer extendedwarranty) and the van was declared ready to be collected, following an extensive test-drive by the dealer, where the van was 'pulling like a train'...
Hi, I’m new here and was hoping for a bit of advice concerning my 2021 transporter. I was driving the van a few weeks ago and smelled slight burning from the dash area when the heater was on. I’ve had the van since last November and it’s been great. I checked the engine to see if it was an...
Caravelle Executive 150ps in Candy White, 2019 with 68 plate 22000 miles, full VW service history and currently on extendedwarranty maintenance package £35k in Elgin Scotland.
...the oil/inspec with supp service + diagnostic check. They also said the vehicle falls within the ability to take out a 2 year extendedwarranty. I'm not sure if it's worth the paper it's written on but it is peace of mind. @roadtripper Permission to start a thread asking people's experiences...
While oil leakes are not covered. Which I think is a bit bad really.
They all in extendedwarranty is still worth considering.
We've had dual mass flyer wheel, EGR cooler, EGR pipe, all replaced under warranty.
Over £2k worth of work.
So same :/
Day 3 of van being in garage and advising injector 4 failed on testing..... Extendedwarranty (All in) have now approved, but might be into next week before fitting new one :/
Is it a big job fitting a new injector? I know it needs coding.
Hopefully it's the correct fix :)
Did they give you the flow rates before and after?.... They may do if you ask.?
Because if after a flush or two, if it still fails the flow rate then it's new EGR time.
I had the same on the van...... failed two flushes, so replacement was fitted. (Under extendedwarranty)
...was a fault in the wiring behind the right rear light cluster, and that they wouldn't repair the fault as it wasn't covered by the extendedwarranty, I went to pick the van up and the lassie said you don't have to pay anything do you? I said noooo. and she handed me the keys said its all...
...that is often overlooked is aftersales support and warranty matters. I’ve commented on here before about this: VW had denied me extendedwarranty and I rang @CRS Performance - Steve asked to speak with VW directly and I passed my phone over. 5 mins later, I had my warranty! Now, that’s a...
