2017 GTI issues *RESOLVED*

[amsr]

Is it commonly known that the vents need to be replaced after a rear end collision? Mine was rear ended and sustained some minor damage to the bumper. Bumper was replaced but I don’t think the vents were. It’s now leaking water from somewhere and the dealer is baffled.

I would think seal damage first

well, I finally got my car back today after having the evap canister/lines replaced. It still won't let me put hardly any fuel in(6$) and it has 80km range. Took it back to the dealership. I'm hoping they can fix it. I'm bummed.

The dealership called me this morning with an update. Apparently there was a faulty/broken rollover valve(I think that's what they said). So, they're going to replace the entire fuel tank. Hopefully this it it *fingers crossed*

So did you actually need the evap canister and lines replaced?

I'm not sure. It was done under warranty so, it was of no cost to me...aside from time without my car.

Found this thread. Seems to be the exact issue I'm having. Parts are getting replaced this week hopefully.

Still carless. Waiting for a fuel tank to come from the US. Been sharing my parents Nissan Rogue occasionally.....I miss my GTI. But, i worry that I will not be able to fully enjoy it without feeling anxious about something else going bad

Finally got my car back today. Luckily, it was covered under warranty. First time in over a month i could put more than a few bucks worth of gas in it.

I'm so happy to have my car back.
