    I have a 2005 Passat. The engine is great for grilling sausages. Much better than my George Foreman grill. Throw them sausages on, drive to work, presto chango, they are grilled to perfection. Great smoky, almost hickory flavour as well. Fat just drips right off 'em, no fuss, no messy cleaning up afterwards. Also, I'd swear I get more k's to the liter as well.
    Ride, eat, sleep, repeat!

    Oooh good sleuthing, WRT!

    From the description:

    "What vehicles are affected?
    1999-2005 model year 5th generation Passat vehicles with (all engines except diesel)."
    ...
    "The affected vehicles with automatic transmissions may have an underbody heat shield that can become damaged. If a damaged heat shield contacts the exhaust system there is a risk of fire. Also, some affected vehicles equipped with 1.8T engines can have a fuel line that may fracture and leak. Additionally, some affected vehicles equipped with 4Motion all-wheel drive may have a fuel tank ventilation valve that may fracture and leak. Leaking fuel, in the presence of an ignition source, can result in fire. Volkswagen has not identified any reports or allegations of crash or fires resulting from this condition; however in the interest of consumer safety, Volkswagen is conducting this safety recall."

    I wonder if they were recalled in NZ?

    It looks like it puked up its engine! Maybe it had a Holden engine in it and when it realised it was living in a VW body it tried to escape!

    Strange co-incidence.....

    I was bored, and looked up the rego for the Passat in Carfax. It's previous plate was personalised, and would have been ironically appropriate if still attached.

    It was: OOOPZ


    True!
