The Pedal Box Recall is only limited to the GTI's right? Or across the '6N2' range?

there are no symptoms yet, I went to the VW garage and he said the recall is outstanding- so really I should get it done as it is a safety issue even thogh currently mine is ok.

I beleive its specific to the GTI- but could be wrong.

You should ask for a courtesy car, but you probably have to book one a month in advance!

Because it is a safety recall, yes, your local VW dealership will carry out the work free of charge :wink:
