Just put my 2 year old, 60,000 mile VW Caddy Bluemotion in for a service at Main Dealer as per the Leasing company requirements.
Garage says there is Swarf or "glittering" in fuel tank and they have to replace every part of the Fuel System apart from Tank and fuel lines! and I wont get the van back for another week..
The van is leased, so not really my problem, or so I thought. They now say this could have been caused by putting petrol in the tank at some point.
I can see the Leasing company trying to use this to get me to pay for the repairs. I know the van has never had petrol in the tank, as I am the only person who has ever driven it.
What is the likely cause of this? I would have thought if a component was breaking down, then that should be the only part to be replaced, as the fuel filter would have caught everything else. It could also have been a fault at the petrol station with their filters.
I don't think they know where the swarf came from, and a easy fix is to replace everything.
All I do know is I won't be paying for it, and am quite enjoying the Caddy Sportline I have as a Courtesy Van.
