Mine will be in the new recall then, I only just missed the original recall. I thought it odd that there were so few in that batch. My service is coming up soon, no doubt my dealer is sitting on it until then.

Good job it has never had any e10 put in it!

(B@@@@@r!  I just put 1/2 a tank of a tank of finest Esso e5 in it this week, if I'd known it was being recalled I'd put a gallon in at a time.)

I just had a look at dot gov for a recall on my car, and I don't have one.  You used to be able to check VIN ranges yourself with a database at VOSA, but that service has disappeared now recalls are managed by DVSA.

What happened with 108226-108241?

If it suddenly breaks, go back to the last thing that you did before it broke and start looking there :)

My recall letter finally arrived today!

 


"insufficient material density caused by the improper injection moulding process" seems somewhat contrived tbh, but I get an e10 proof pump out of it- I hope!

So today it went in for its service and the pump recall.

Except they hadn't got the pump..........


Massively super extremely annoying.

They could have told me before they collected it today and I'd have delayed the service a month or so.

Now I suppose they will expect me to pay for collection again, and I have to keep putting in 2 gallons at a time to keep the weight of the tank down.

EDIT: So 24 hours later I get the call that the pump has arrived now! 

Booked in for 4th July, and I don't have to pay for collection again, so that is Good News.

Well they replaced the pump last week, and half a tank of Tescos E5 has gone through without issue. They washed it again- that is 4 times this year already, and it is only July!

They moved the passenger seat and had the carpet up in the back, I thought there was no access from the top and the tank had to drop so no reason to be in the back, unless Suzuki made it so the wires connect under the carpet rather than at the pump?
