| 2010 | FUEL SYSTEM, DIESEL | 2010 JETTA SEDAN TDI --> FUEL LEAK --> DAY PRIOR RAN NORMAL. WENT TO START AND DID NOT START. THOUGHT WAS THE BATTERY. CHARGED EMERGENCY STARTER FOR 4HR AND ATTEMPTED AGAIN WITH NO AVAIL. CALLED A FRIEND WHO IS A DIESEL MECHANIC TO HELP START IT. HOOKED TO HIS TRUCK AND STILL NO START. I NOTICED WET UNDERNEATH THE FRONT PASSENGER WHEEL AND THOUGHT NOTHING OF IT SINCE IT WAS PARKED ON THE STREET, SO WATER POSSIBLY. IT STARTED TO SNOW. WENT AND PURCHASED A NEW BATTERY. INSTALLED THE BATTERY, AFTER BATTERY INSTALL STILL DID NOT START. ATTEMPTED 2 MORE TIMES. SINCE IT WAS NOT THE BATTERY HE BEGAN TO LOOK ELSEWHERE WHILE I ATTEMPTED TO START AND YELLED AT ME TO STOP. I GO TO THE FRONT OF THE AUTO AND HE SHOWS ME WHERE THE DIESEL IS PULSATING OUT AND THAT IS WHY IT IS NOT STARTING, IT IS NOT GETTING TO THE ENGINE. I THEN LOOK AROUND THE CAR AND WITH THE SNOW, I THEN NOTICE A LONG GREEN PATH OF DIESEL FUEL ALONG THE ROAD. I CALLED VW, PAID THE 84$ TO TOW TO VW DEALER AND THEY COULD NOT LOOK AT IT UNTIL A WEEK LATER. MY CONCERN IS THE GAS LEAK. I SHOULD TECHNICALLY HAVE OVER 54K ON THE VEHICLE, I AM NOT EVEN CLOSE TO THOSE OTHERS FOR SALE ON THE MARKET. I AM NOT UPSET SINCE NO BODILY HARM WAS DONE, HOWEVER THE LEAK IS IN GREAT AMOUNT. I DO RECALL A COUPLE OF DAYS EARLIER THAT I WAS GOING THROUGH GAS QUICKER. I FILL 1X A MONTH, WITH 4 DAYS I WAS THROUGH A QUARTER OF A TANK BUT IT DID NOT CLICK. THIS IS ME NOTIFYING YOU OF MY GAS LEAK. THE CAR NEVER STARTED AND THERE WAS NO FIRE BUT THERE IS CONCERN DUE TO THE LEAK. MY MECHANIC FRIEND STATED THAT HE HAD NO IDEA WHAT THE PART WAS CALLED THAT WAS SHOOTING OUT THE FUEL AND TO TAKE TO A AUTHORIZED VW DEALER WHICH I DID. I STILL HAVE 5 DAYS TILL THEY CAN EVEN LOOK AT MY CAR. *TR |
