ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING:ENGINE
ON AUGUST 12, 2005 I WAS DRIVING MY 2002 PASSAT TO WORK WHEN MY OIL PRESSURE LIGHT CAME ON. I HAD THE CAR TOWED TO THE NEAREST VW DEALER WHEN THEY TOLD ME THAT MY CAR HAD OIL SLUDGE DUE TO MANUFACTURER ERROR. THE CAR HAS 50,100 MILES AND IS COMPLETELY RUINED. VW WILL NOT REPLACE WITHOUT ALL OIL RECEIPTS. I AM MISSING 2 RECEIPTS. I DO NOT UNDERSTAND HOW A CAR WITH 50000 MILES ON IT CAN RUIN SO EASILY.
