Default CEL for 2ndary air too low? I've had 8!

Wonder if I am the only one and my car is a lemon, or is this fairly common on the 4.2? I have a Phaeton

Default Our account manager has a Phaeton, he bought it last Christmas. He is driving a Jetta loaner....

for 2 weeks now. His car has overheating problem, that the dealer couldn't figure out.

Exactly right - partially burned/melted line near a minifold was it.

Default Check your pump housing

On my 00 1.8t my secondary air pump housing had begun to split when the rivets that hold the two halves together began to let loose. I just inserted small screws/locknuts thru them, snugged and all was good
