    Been towed into garage at least 3 or 4 times. Problems been going on since car was 3months old. Gearbox replaced, many components replaced, finally gave up and put in new ECU unit, map sensors changed - still do not think problem is solved.

    Volkswagen have been no assistance - would urge not to but this car unless you like to visit the garage nearly every week! Don't bother to complain to Volkswagen, they aren't much help at all.
