AFAIK the recall only applies to the PD170s, the 140 should be okay
No, the 140's were also part of the recall. My '57 plate tdi 140 was done back in Feb 2012, and a mate had his one done around the same time.

Just rang Audi customer services and from my Reg number they seem to think that the car is fine.

2006 A4 TDI S Line 140

However is they any way I can 100% ensure that this is the case? As I am slightly paranoid of a random £2k bill appearing even though the car is fine now.

In Audi's only the 170bhp engine have the troublesome injectors.

On VW some of the 140bhp engines have them also.

Checked engine code and also fact Audi said was no recall leads me to believe I should be okay!

Nothing wrong with the car just thought if they was a potential issue I should get it fixed smile

Very unusual on the CR engines. Unless they had seen some contaminated fuel " petrol / Bio Diesel " at some point in the cars life.

CR engines never had the injectors recalled as with the PD engines discussed in this thread.

Hi I have a Audi A3 56plate 170pd, bmn, I have contacted Audi who have insisted mine is not on the list to be recalled. audi are refusing to even check what injectors I have in my car unless I pay and cannot tell me which ones are in my car. Can anyone help? I thought all Audi A3 pre 2008/ cr engines had the faulty injectors? Especially the 170pd with the bm engine?

Hi,

I had a 56 plate A3 170pd. It had Bosch injectors so wasn't part of the recall. Sorry I can't remember the engine code.

I have been reading the posts regarding the Injector recall saga concerning VW vehicles. I have a 2007 2 litre Passat Sel Tdi with the engine number BMR 055684 and it has recently been assessed as having oil in the fuel which is suspected to be from the injector seals. I have spoken to VW Customer services who say that this car is not covered by any recall, where (and how) can I find out if this is true or not?

Ring a local VW dealer, give them your reg number and ask if the system throws up any outstanding workshop campaigns/product enhancements.

Yup, do this.

Engine numbers that were affected are as follows...
Passat 3C 2006-2008 with the BKP, BMA, BWV, BVE, BMR, and BUZ engines.

I made a note of these numbers back in 2011 when I had my 2.0tdi Estate done so it looks like yours should be covered.

Hi all, my A4 B7 (170) BRD has just been fixed after the dreaded oil pump failure, so has had a new reconditioned engine block, uprated oil pump, and turbo.
It had a problem before, and it is still here where when driving it’s fine, but at idle (not every time, maybe 75% of the time) it’s horrendous where the rpm jumps around by 400rpm, feels like someone it knocking the seat, and lots of white smoke out the back which stinks of fuel regardless if the engine is cold or warm.
And it comes up with the injector 1 intermittent fault when plugged in to the laptop.

My question is with all this talk of recalls, does anyone have the recall number? Or even better a copy of the Audi service/workshop bulletin so I can take it in to them and say ‘fix it please’ so they can’t argue. Oh and I’ve called Audi UK who say there isn’t any recalls due on my car.
Many thanks all!!!!!

Got a 58 plate Leon 2.0 TDI FR, engine code starts BMN in the logbook. Called a few SEAT dealers and none say there was a recall? White smoke on start suddenly which has me worried!

Checked the injectors on euro car parts for my Reg and they state its for engine code CEGA, could this be why they say theres no recall?
