My mate has just had his MOT done on his A4 (2011) MOT tester came to him and told him the EGV was faulty and required replacement. When he challenged the tester on if this is part of the emissions issue he said it was his findings. Mate said there was no advisory previously and that he would take it up with VOSA if it failed on his findings. result? his car passed MOT, report still sent to VOSA..

Just a warning to others, is this how VAG plan to limit the cost? or is this the result of greedy garages trying to pull the wool over unknowing customers?
 
I don't think the VAG group will be to blame for it, it does sound like the garage have found a new way to make some extra cash tho......
 
sounds like they're chancing their arm and unfortunately your mate has fallen for their ploy.
