UPDATE Technical Bulletin (TDI Battery Management Software): The battery can become discharged when the ECM "wakes-up" the CAN bus to do a diagnostic (~9 hours after vehicle shut-off). During that diagnostic time-window, if the door is opened or the ignition is switched ON, the ECM goes into a mode that can continuously wake-up the CAN bus, leading to excessive parasitic draw and a discharged battery while the vehicle is parked. This update has been proactively released to prevent the battery from becoming discharged due to a unique set of circumstances during the CAN bus diagnostic phase, leading to excessive parasitic draw and a discharged battery while the vehicle is parked.

Technical Bulletin (Oil Consumption Measurement): Customer states oil consumption is higher than the Volkswagen oil consumption standard of up to 0.5 quarts per 600 miles, or 0.5 liters per 1000 km. In order to provide effective lubrication and cooling of internal engine components, all internal combustion engines consume a certain amount of engine oil. Oil consumption varies from engine to engine and may change significantly over the life of the engine. Typically, engines with specified break-in periods consume more oil during the break-in period, and the oil consumption will stabilize after the break-in period. Refer to the Owners Manual for specific break-in procedures. Under normal conditions, the rate of oil consumption depends on the quality and viscosity of the oil, the RPM at which the engine is operated, the ambient temperature and road conditions. Further factors include the amount of oil dilution from water condensation or fuel residue and the oxidation level of the oil. 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.
