Around how many miles into the car were you that this happened if you don’t mind me asking. Love the cat as well :)

Thanks for the advice Hans. The vehicle has already been sold a couple of days back. Been back to the grind of finding new prospects.

I guess I should have prefaced “hard driving” - pushing the car over 70 mph every now and then not daily lol. She usually doesn’t go above 65 despite what the speed limit says. She enjoys her new balances as well :).. they are quite comfy and provide excellent arch support

Gotcha. Yea I never light foot my car tank after tank. My girlfriend and I share a 2015 Toyota Corolla and you can tell who drives the car when the mpg drops lol. I tell her you gotta drive the car “hard” at times to help the life of the engine, but what do I know lol.

Sound advice. Thank you for the input.

I thought was odd as well. I figured if the checked the ECU and fuel system wouldn’t they know there was an ignition issue accompanied with those checks at that time, and wouldn’t they have just handled the issue all together... or is their a recurrent problem in the foreseeable future for me lol

I contacted the dealer to see what warranties were still applicable to the car and waiting for them to reply back. I was thinking with the main concerns I had, they wanted to replace the items before selling the car to make it more reliable. Might be a silly question: What is the difference...

Hi everyone. New member here looking to get his hands on a used 2017 GTI (be gentle...) I am very new to volkswagens, and GTI’s in general. I wanted a fun daily driver and after review many posts, and research online, the GTI sounds right up my ball park. I have one in mind, but wanted some...
