- Good advice. In addition, you should check the NHTSA database of Technical Service Bulletins on-line. If there is a TSB for this problem -- even if it was not a recall -- it gives you the information

- Personally, Don, I think the dealer is on solid ground refusing to help you. If you love litigation, this is an excuse for a suit you'll probably lose. But, instead I'd suggest to take out the shift

- FWIW, autocross is usually not considered to be a "race or speed contest". If it were, it would not only void everyone's warranties, but also their insurance. I've had warranties honored on two diffe

- Remember that the dealer is just covering his own ass. If he sends a broken trans back to VW, and they kick the warranty back, the dealer eats the whole thing. Charlie
