Technical Bulletin (Incorrect Glow Plug Faults): During the initial glow phase, after switching the ignition ?On?, the ECM performs a check of the glow plugs through the glow plug control module, to ensure the correct glow plugs are installed. If the engine is cranked during this check, lowering the system voltage, the ECM may receive an incorrect reading and set incorrect glow plug faults. This document discusses the "Fault Codes" necessary to diagnosis, and potential remedy of the issue. The fault codes for checking warranty coverage for servicing the vehicle are also available.

Warranty Information (Regularly Scheduled Maintenance Interval Time or Mileage Guidelines): The Volkswagen Customer Experience Team has monitored the claims processed through the Carefree Maintenance (CFM) program from its inception. Their findings reveal that, in many cases, the first maintenance interval service (10K) has been claimed multiple times while subsequent maintenance interval services (20K and 30K), although being performed for the customer, have been submitted erroneously. It is crucial that Volkswagen of America receives accurate claim coding information regarding the Carefree Maintenance (CFM) Program. Accurate claim data enables Volkswagen to assist Dealers to improve their CFM penetration and customer return rates. In addition, it allows VWoA to assess the perceived benefits of the program to our customers. To assist Dealer Service Departments in determining the most appropriate service number and maintenance interval to use, Volkswagen has established the guidelines in this document.

Technical Bulletin (TDI Clean Diesel I/M (Inspection Maintenance) Testing Issues due to Readiness Not Set): Some readiness codes on TDI clean diesel vehicles require special driving conditions to be set. If DTCs have been recently erased from the vehicle?s ECM, it may take additional driving under different conditions to fully set OBD readiness parameters. MVB 89 (on non-UDS protocol ECM?s) will store correct data concerning OBD readiness. This document illustrates how to manually read OBD readiness codes.

Tech Tips (Equipped With KESSY ? Key Adaptation Tip): When adapting keys on a vehicle equipped with KESSY, it is recommended to remove the immobilizer reader coil from behind round cover on steering column trim and insert key inside the reader coil. The steering column trim does not need to be completely removed to access reader coil. For vehicles with the Start/Stop button on the steering column, the Start/Stop button assembly can be removed from column trim without disassembling trim. Start/Stop button connector must be disconnected to allow reader coil to be removed from around button assembly. Start/Stop button should be reconnected during key adaptation.
