ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING:EXHAUST SYSTEM:EMISSION CONTROL
I HAVE HAD PERSISTENT EMISSION PROBLEMS WITH MY 2000 V6 VW PASSAT SINCE DATE OF PURCHASE. THE MAF/OXYGEN SENSORS HAVE BEEN REPLACED NUMEROUS TIMES AND NOW I HAVE AN EMISSIONS ISSUE AGAIN (NOW OUTSIDE OF WARRANTY) THAT TRACES BACK TO SOMETHING IN MY SECONDARY AIR SYSTEM (ERROR CODES 1411, 1423). THESE EMISSION PROBLEMS ARE REGULAR AND PERSISTENT AND VW SHOULD TAKE CARE OF THEM WITHOUT ME SPENDING HUNDREDS/THOUSANDS OF DOLLARS TIME AND TIME AND TIME AGAIN! *NM
