annnnnnd she’s back. Dealer replaced the whole fuel system per VW bulletin. Attempted to coordinate pick of her, mind you I’m in the burbs of Chicago and dealer was in Lafayette. Service person says we’ll bring her to you and save you the trouble of 5 hour drive :D Couldn’t be happier with the end result.

Keep a sharp eye for recurring issues, mine had to go back 2 more times (faulty lift pump and plumbed wrong)

Noted, just ran her through her paces to the city and back with and without traffic. No issues.
