| 2011 | FUEL SYSTEM, DIESEL | MY VEHICLE IS A TDI DIESEL VERSION OF THE VW 2011 GOLF. DURING MY COMMUTE HOME I WAS TRAVELING AT HIGHWAY SPEED IN THE LEFT LANE OF SOUTHBOUND HIGHWAY 101 IN CA WHEN A WARNING LIGHT ILLUMINATED (GLOW PLUG) AND I LOST SIGNIFICANT SPEED AND POWER. I MADE MY WAY TO THE RIGHT SHOULDER AND WAS ABLE TO TRAVEL IN "LIMP MODE" FOR ANOTHER MILE OR SO BEFORE THE CAR DIED. I CALLED THE NEAREST VW DEALER AND HAD MY CAR TOWED TO THAT DEALER. INITIAL FEEDBACK FROM THE DEALER IS THAT IT IS A HIGH PRESSURE FUEL PUMP (HPFP) FAILURE. ROOT CAUSE AND REPAIR HAVE NOT BEEN COMPLETED AS OF TODAY, MONDAY JULY 22, 2013. *TR |
