I did have the dealer look at it about 50,000 but the picture was so bad that I could not justify $600 for what the said was just a little bit of carbon.

It still idles like a VW starts fine just like the day I bought it. VW put it in for $60........... broke just when we had that heatwave last week in the NorthEast.
Awesome to hear! I also bought mine new and plan to keep it for a long time. Very cool to read it's been that so dependable for ~75k on the Uni Stage1+ over that use (if I read that correctly?). Means to me these engines are strong indeed and, especially on stock power, one could likely get away with a LOT more miles before anything major ever happens.

That is a low of high way miles so not surprised about the clutch. Either way, impressive.

Awesome! So your 2015, no blown turbo and stock clutch with tune. You may have a unicorn
Very great to hear someone enjoying and able to drive their car
This is not as big of an issue as these threads make it out to be. I've got an earlier 2015 build and have had zero issues with the stock clutch and turbo with it tuned. Really glad these cars are holding up!!!

It seems not to be a hard job to do. I would have done it myself but I had to go to work and it was hot...... I was thinking that VW gave me a break because I already paid 110 for the diagnostics, but was told before that money does not go to the repair.
Perhaps the diagnosis included opening up the underside of the dash but I doubt it. I think you're right that they gave you a break.
Half way to 100k miles here. I have had zero issues with my car so far other than blown turbo. ( early build date with bad revision turbo)
I been tuned on eurodyne and dsg tune since 15k miles. And I do at least a pull everyday.
