<html><div style='background-color:'><DIV></DIV> <DIV></DIV> <P>Did anybody else read anything about this?</P> <P>Apparently, VW's 1.o and 1.4ltr engines in the Lupo and Polo cars freeze and burst at low temp. because of water in the oil. 5500 claims in Europe so far, over a million engines built. Now VW promises to fix the problem (some heating device installed) or replace the engine for free. Supposed to be a 10 year recall deal. Too bad we can't get this recall for our wasserleakers. I bet we can come up with 5500 claims on this list alone.
