Hi folks,
I was watching a pretty hard hitting documentary about the Takata Airbag scandal and when it mentioned this was a worldwide issue and not just confined to the US, of course I did a quick google.
Sure enough there’s a VWUK page dedicated to the recall of UK vehicles (both commercial and passenger) and when I put in the VIN of my 2011 T5.1 Caravelle Exec it said
So I called my local and they’ve booked it in for a recall repair under warranty at their next available slot.
The lady on the phone then said “oh, it’s actually due two recalls… oh no, it’s ok, one’s been done”.
But, when she gave me the recall code “23DV” that mine is now booked in under, a quick google seems to suggest that’s to do with EGR coolers and ECU software, nowt to do with airbags…?
Can anyone shed any light on the 23DV code, and has anyone had theirs in for the Takata airbag recall?
Cheers.
