That would make the car 8 years old…what if the coolant had never been changed in that time or it’s been poorly maintained there’s gotta be a cut off point where the customers car is the customers car and it’s not down to the brand to sort years after the warranty has expired
My original comment appears to not be here. Regardless of coolant changes. If proven to be sand that's blocked the matrix, this is not down to the customer. And 90% of cases I've seen with this issue have been down to sand. Cut the old matrix and post a video. I love to see, but I won't hold my breath.
Was this a casting sand problem?
I was scraping up after another place had tried everything matey so Ill never know what they did before I got it but the coolant was extremely clean
Need this doing on my 2014 GTD 😢
It’s easy enough to do yourself aslong as you’ve got a bit of tooling and some patience 😊
@TheVWMechanic_official Is it possible without software then? Cheers
It’s possible yeah but not ideal mate
How is this not a recall.
In my opinion it’s not specifically safety related it’s more comfort and convenience
Sand blocking the matrix is diabolical and shouldn't be up to the customer to fix 5 years after the warranty expired
