    THE VEHICLE GOT THE DIESEL MODIFICATION. AFTER THE MODIFICATION, THE DEALER RETURNED THE VEHICLE WITH THE CHECK-ENGINE LIGHT ON. IT IS ONE OF VW'S KNOWN ISSUES. VW HAS DECLARED THAT THE HEATER CORE IS NOT PART OF THE 'EMISSIONS CONTROL SYSTEM' AND WANT TO REPLACE THE HEATER CORE AT A COST OF $1,150.00. SEEMS TO ME THAT IF THEY CREATE A PROBLEM, THEY NEED TO FIX IT.
