In case anyone wasn't aware VW Poole are offering to update non-navigation head units to navigation units for £599. I imagine this offer will be available through other dealers too.

What is also a great concern is that the fix has been tester by an Italian consumer group on an Audi Q5 and found that NOX emmissions went up 25% above EU legal limit. I fear that VW might make our cars illegal to use and wipe thousands off the value. http://www.autocar.co.uk/car-news/industry/vw-emissions-scandal-consumer-group-claims-dieselgate-fix-ineffective

Hi Trevor, Yes we're impressed with it. My reason for signing up is to see if any members would be interested in supporting a campaign to treat us owners like they have in USA regarding the emmissions scandal. I have started a gov.uk petition, and would like to get enough support to get our government to back us. The petition link is here: https://petition.parliament.uk/petitions/161593/sponsors/iDr8btqR7jJ5dZcOjnuU Would you be happy to put it in a Sticky?

Hi Artviz, We've had ours 3 years and 30,000 miles and so far nothing has failed. However the most common failure on 50k plus vehicles can be the EGR valve especially with lots of short trips. They are a complex water cooled item and expensive to replace. Cheers

What to members think about this? There's a new article in the BBC today about it http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/business-36796829

Hi everyone, We love our VW Sharan, it's the perfect family transport for the daily school run and camping trips. I'm looking forward to chatting with like-minded owners. Best regards, Chris
