mines just gone . . . well its been leaking for a while. MY18 204 DSG 36k miles. (within warranty - just)
The AA guy failing to diagnose it. (VW Assist callout, asked for VW guy but got the yellow van guy =[ )
The VW assist correctly diagnosing it: (VW Assist callout)
My pipe as is now.

New one to be fitted in a couple of days hopefully. (VW Assist callout - return to fix with parts)
.
ill update when its done.
Edit:
He called this morning to say the local TPS was out of stock... part ordered and due for collection over the next day or so.
edit: parts are in apparently - job to be done mobile today.
edit:
all done, the VW Assist guy had it done in 15mins with me chatting to him on the driveway whilst doing it.
no special tools . . . just a 1/4 inch small ratchet,
with a small 1/4 inch extension bar,
and the splined bit for the bolt.
he just took out all four bolts one at a time . . . just feeling blind.
then took out the old, and swapped for the new.
again replacing the bolts one at a time.
one small tip was that he used electrical tape to tape the bolt into the bit, when refitting them - to stop the bolt from falling off.
....
this is the old and new unit:
.
common problem as he had a second faulty one on the van . . . .
...
he done it all ftrom the topside just reaching down . .
...
and the paperwork for it . . .
...
this is how he reached it.
... Thanks VW Assist - fixed it again =]
well worth the VW roadside assist fee . . . . i think ill look at paying for the extra two years callout fee . .
i think
@Loz took this option?
