When I got my Vanagon, I had the local dealer put the VIN into their computer system which supplied a list of all the recalls and which had been applied to my Westy ('88) I ended up geting a fuel line modification/replacement that the PO had not done. I think there is a way you can register with VWoA to make sure you are getting the recall notices. You can also see the recalls and service bullitens at: http://www.alldata.comhttp://www.alldata.com/recalls/index.html

Apparently the previous owners missed getting this recall done on the fuel injectors. I would appreciate any advice the list has on this recall. I have an appt. to have it done on 8/19th at a local dealer. But, is there anything special I should be asking for them to check or other things I should be concerned about. I wonder if this fuel injector problem was a factor in the fire in the van which was on the listmail I think a few days ago - a van for sale after a fire. Virginia |
