Re: bad start to passat life
Ok, Just took my o/s/f washer jet out, and cleaned it. Easy to get out, but it just doesn't want to work. Checked ECP and they are only £2.60 to replace to will be getting a new one shortly. (will check with dealership too though) as looks like they are the original ones...so might pay a but extra...

Re: bad start to passat life
Don't Panic!! I'd agree with basbas2009, in that ALL these issues are known passat issues, but it does sound like the dealership went a bit OTT especially as they had just sold you the car. Did they clear the codes or just tell you they were there? (did they even say where they related to?) -might ...

Re: bad start to passat life
Like craalzy4alfa says, wear and tear and routine maintenance wont get covered, but your mechanical defecfs causing the limp mode andleaking seals should get rectified, regardless of warranty or not, the seller should put these right as you have only just bought the car. Im guessing youve got the 1...
