Does the issue relate to cars actually manufactured during August 08?

My car may have been made during July 08. Can I check if the issue affects my car?

This concerns me...I have a MY08 so presumably I should be expecting a letter soon?

Post by: morry_ed30 on February 13, 2010, 11:19:53 pm: depending on production d8 and part no of the mechatronics it may be replaced, and a simple softwear update for DSG control unit...Nothing to worry about :happy2:
