[Vwdiesel] no heater core on recall

[Marvin Jansen]

The dealer in Birmingham wouldn't replace the heater core on recall. Said my
vin number was not on the recall. I had told them it didn't heat up good
unless on recirculating and they said it was the foam deteriorated on the
heater box doors and gave me a $1300 estimate to replace the box. The
service manager admitted he had refoamed his own and said they would repair
my box for $450. I am going to get the car and fix it myself. I have more
time than money, and can continue to get heat by putting it in recirculating
mode and unpluging the AC comp. That's my update.
