Here's a couple of recalls on the 16V Scirocco...


1. Description of defect:
	Fuel pump, located inside fuel tank, could sieze during high ambient
temperatures because of an extreme fine mesh fuel filter restricting the
fuel flow.

Fault:
	Erratic operation, poor performance.

Consequnces:
	Fuel supply would be partially interrupted, resulting in stalling.

Corrective action:
	Install a new modified fuel pump and filter.


2. Description of defect:
	A crack can develop in the fuel tank adjacent to a seam weld in the
rear of the tank.

Consequences:
	Fuel can leak from the cracked fuel tank which could catch fire in the
presence of a source of ignition.

Corrective action:
	Check vehicle with a specially designed tool for the presence of a fuel
tank crack, and replace tank if defect is found.
