Awesome. I couldn't find these listed, and a part number search on RockAuto pulls them up for $72 each front and $42 rear.
yeah, if you click the desc it mentions the coating. A photo would really help out on the ole rockauto

Fuck, I have a leaking heater hose and they are sold out everywhere. I get to call dealer today.

Anyone have any good ideas where to check for parts? I've hit the usual suspects, ecs, fcp, gap, rockauto, and Napa.

Ecs does have the supply but that's not what's leaking

Supply
1K0122157HH

Return
1K0122073FS. I think this is it. Fcp says it fits, ecs says it won't.

Anyone of you :dillerman: Bros able to verify?

Ok, vw says that p/n fits.

No one clearly defines inlet and outlet though :(

I really liked my DSG but they can eff off with $360 oil changes.

I never bothered to look into it, but is the oil super expensive or is it mostly labor?

Its about $120 of parts/fluid and about 1.5 hours of labor.

including labor. Also on my first one, I got charged just over a grand at Rosenthal VW in Fairfax where I originally got it from, walked away and drove to Stohlman in Tysons, they quoted me $540 iirc literally half the price. All the other shops are either booked for 3 weeks or haven't heard from them. So I had to settle a long ass drive for it.

From what I've seen. Initially, they were trying to fix them, but it seems lately they are just buying them back without dicking around too much with attempted repairs.

Interesting. im out the loop on this one. I dont see how a :manuel: can just die unless there is some bad "auto start" feature mix up. Fuck auto starts in general, I finally saw my first autostart car not instantly fire back up and was stalled out with a panicking owner. Great idea in theory but as soon as them parts have some wear.. good luck...

Mine doesn't have any stop-start feature. Since this issue only seems to affect manual cars, I'm going to guess it is a programming issue or a wiring harness issue and would start with anything that pertains solely to the manual cars.
But I'm not being paid by VW to diagnose it and if mine acts up, I fully intend to drop it off at the dealer and tell them their shit is broke.

Aar is at the shop for an oil change and it pooped out a check engine light and a fuel tank system error. Extended warranty covering me where the factory warranty left off. It is my first extended warranty claim so I'm curious to see how it unravels.

Arteon loaner in a metallic mustard yellow is a fun change. The wheel base being so long is kind of good and bad. Overall I give it a 4/7

Arteon's are pretty sweet. :like:

They're expensive but still cheaper than a 3 or a C.

Same here, I may go with a different manufacturer next buy..

The Arteon is a nice place to be, illumination and dash is very audi, cooled seats, heated steering, sport mode (is meh but stiffens the steering), disgust start stop, nicely toned to give a low throttle input to get the beast moving, suspension is good and soaked up an accidental 30mph speed bump pass over, wheels are too big, it's kind of power IMO.. the paint is nice if you like the color, it looks like the poop yellow that M3 came in not long ago.

Dealer is keeping the car overnight, apparently there is a short between the fuel sensor and the gauge cluster.

These cars are too complicated man.

Arteon goes back this morning, my car awaits a sensor and I want a cheaper loaner so it is my first stop.

Extended warranty is covering the new sensor, wasn't a short after all, part should be in on Montag

You want a cheaper loaner as in they’re making you pay for the loaner? Lol
