So I was just online chatting with VW Care asking why my extended emissions warranty still says pending online on vwdieselinfo.com when I know the fix has been completed. They confirmed that my fix had been completed and that I do have an extended warranty but said I may need to complete the new campaign that came out almost three weeks ago for the system to update. Has anyone heard of or done this new campaing/fix: "3.0L TDI Engine Gen 2.1 & 2.2 SUV approved emissions released on January 7, 2020" Wondering what this is, of course he told me to hurry to the dealer to take care of it.

From what I've read on another site, it's a software update.

I got a letter in the mail about two weeks ago, dutifully went to my dealer and they said they had no idea. Told me me to sit tight for a month. Go figure.
Quick Search: New Emission Recall
I'll have to check whether 23AK applies in other parts of Europe.
I know that with cooler temps and I step on it my back window will cover in steam. Never had that before in a vehicle. Now I wonder if it is smoke. I assumed that it was the AdBlue.

My other VW TDI's have no smoke at all no matter when or how hard I press on the pedal so I'm a little concerned about this one. I've read on here that the white smoke may be the injectors, injector seals or EGR valve. If it's any of these they should be covered under the emissions warranty.
I have the same thing. Is it normal for that to happen?
What did they find out? Because I either just started noticing this or it just started.
Mine does the same, not sure if normal or not. I figured it to be Adblue as I am not loosing coolant.
