Answered by Georgia Petrie

Volkswagen told us: "We can’t see any active customer complaints logged with our customer service team relating to 1.5 TSI issues after the software update. As far as we are aware the software update has been a success and no further measures are planned. However in isolated cases it is possible some vehicles may have another mechanical fault unrelated to the software update."
