  Either your VW was made before 2008 or you owe some malevolent spirit your eternal soul.

      The reason I say before 2008 is that around that time VW embraced programmed obsolescence with open arms. I have a 2012 Touran and around 200000 km (not miles) everything started breaking at once. Both driver and passenger side window lifts, front stabilizers and coils (separately), rear coils, gearbox control unit, rear lock, horn, file lines (twice) and now, to rub salt in the financial wound, it lost every drop of oil from the engine into a shopping centre carpark.

  Unplugging your cel doesn’t count.
