I currently own a Volkswagen 1.9TDI Passat, 2004 model, which has been in a Volkswagen garage with problems with the engine management light being on.

Have been told by the garage that the fuel injectors have to be replaced at a cost of £3000 and it is not being covered by Volkswagen, but what I can't understand is why I have a friend with a 58 reg Passat which had the same problem - and his was covered by Volkswagen.

I know there is 4 years difference in the age of the cars but surely if its the same problem Volkswagen should cover mine also.
