Ric,
I hope you are able to get your EV functional soon and all the effort put
into communicating to VW and other owners will lead to an engineered
correction to the fuel line problem. The other aspect of your story that
concerns me is the lack of readily available replacement parts. Given the
popularity of this vehicle in Europe, I can't understand why they can't ship
the parts you need from Germany. Could it be that there are some unique US
spec parts (eg wiring harness) that VW is not stocking? High prices can be
tolerated but no parts is not acceptable for a 7 year old vehicle. Please
continue to keep us posted on your repair. Thanks.
Ron
