Crazy idea but why not phone VW with your details as ask if they fall under the recall??  :huh:

As per above  :smiley:  But I'm fairly certain it only covers the 1.8T and 2.0T engines

I sent a email to my local dealership with all my car details to see if I had a recall , but it all came back good.

Was worth a try though, maybe email your dealers too. Nothing to lose
