I have a December 2014 build and it shows no recall on VW website when i type my vin in. I heard that jalopnik contacted vw and they told them that the gti is actually not affected by this recall now.

The GTIs are not impacted. Multiple people have confirmed this to be true. So that's good for all the GTI owners.

Your model year is 2016. However, your production date will be a 2015 car.

I just got notified by my dealer that my vehicle is affected. Labor time is 3 hrs and they have the parts in stock now.

I'm guessing that is for the suction pump... Not the camshaft. 3 hours for a camshaft replacement is rediculous.

I already had the suction pump recall done. I guess I'll find out on Friday.

False alarm as the person who called me was not my service advisor. I called and talked to my trusted advisor and my recall is for the sunroof.
I will say VWs recall website is a bit crap as mine shows clean even though it has had the suction pump as well as this pending sunroof one. I think a recall is safety related where as the sunroof is technically a service bulletin?

Yeah, it's crap! I never saw my suction pump recall in there either. Always shows nothing. I also wish they would list the recalls that have already been done.
