Our Mk6 just back from 1st annual service and this included, under warranty:
New Coolant Water Pump
New Horn (Fanfare 'low' tone apparantly)
New Mechatronics (and software..)
New Noise Damping Pan
Repaired and painted Left Hand fender print (the main body part between rear door and wheel arch, which was creased)
New monza shadow wheel...on order (due to surface corrosion)
New rear view mirror trim
Re-programmed DSG paddle response time (quicker!)
Very pleased at replacement of mechatronics as car is much smoother to drive. Paddle shifts much quicker but it seems in 'D' the car hangs on to a low gear much more than before, almost as if in 'S' which will take some getting used too.
Despite the above surprisingly long list of faults (our MkVGti never put a foot wrong in 3 years..), we still love the car and she'll remain a part of our family for a while to come.
How many miles have you done? Sounds like it was knackered.
