Recall Confusion

jonlarge · 10-10-2008, 10:24 PM

We took our 14.5k mile A4 B7 into have it's service this week and the service man told us that they were fixing a fuel pump problem on all 2 litre turbo engines (and V8s and another engine I think). It was part of an Audi recall and they would change the pump (I think) free of charge, and it would have the affect of adjusting the fuel to the engine.

All well and good and nicely explained. When we picked the car up though we have a "Warranty Repair Confirmation" sheet and it details "Recall 66D4 Required - Carried Out Recall 66D4: Servicing Roof Trim Strip" I've done a Google search for 66D4 and found some chat on a TT forum about door seals.

So what's all the stuff about the fuel pump?

I've only just found this out and thought I'd share the story with experts in Tyresmoke before phoning the stealer.

Can anyone shed any light?

Just corrected your linky

- great find.

I had seen them a while back but lost the linky. Yes, agreed, they know what they are talking about regarding ECUs and and auto electrics in general.

Thanks.

Sounds like they've made a few Schoolboys;

1) They are not recalls. They are Workshop Campaigns/Product Improvements; basically customer issues (e.g. wind noise) if reported often enough are investigated by Audi AG and a fix applied. They are not recalls and are only required as and when the vehicles come in.

2) If *think* if it's the 66D4 campaign only applies to Audi TT's; it's just a piece of foam that sits in the door seals. I will look into it for you

There is a fuel pump campaign on very early 2.0T's, but it's more likely they've done the fuel pressure mod instead.

Its the fuel pressure sensor we are changing on the FSI engines. Your service advisor probably just wrote down the wrong number, 13B9 66D4, they all sound the same after a while.
