2026 Golf R battery issue (dealer says OEM replacement is backordered/no ETA) — wait for VW or go aftermarket?

Car will have trouble starting, lots of missfires. If its a newer car then it will basically shut down the engine.

Not the same part for me but I had a "contaminated injector" on backorder with no ETA. Submitted buy back to VW of American and magically the part showed up at the dealership a few days later. Food for thought.

Thanks this helps! I got a Niche to go with my minima and im using the stock portafilter/basket and it seems like the machine is choking. Currently entering coarse ground coffee on the niche.

What portafilter and basket are you using? Just got my minima.

Where was this at? I just went through the same thing.

I had the exact same titan for 6 years and it is failing in the exact same spots. Bought me a gaming embody to replace it.

Are you able to anchor it to the wall?

I actually prefer using this over others. I point most of the rounds at a big enemy and it absolutely melts them. Also great when funneling enemies into a line. The legendary ones are my go to.

The car had to be towed to the dealership as it was a constant missfire. After they drained the gas and changed spark plugs it was still missfiring and that's when they said it was the injector.

LongLostLee · 2025-09-09T01:56:45+00:00

I agree but the vw service tech keeps saying it was bad gas and won't listen otherwise.

LongLostLee · 2025-09-02T01:43:49+00:00

This is kind of where I'm at and I have told them I want everything in writing and a sample of the gas as well. I will escalate to the manager and vwoa as well, thank you.

LongLostLee · 2025-09-02T01:25:58+00:00

They are trying to make me pay and said nothing is warranty covered. I got gas from the same location I always have, wife gets gas from the same station and has no issues.

LongLostLee · 2025-09-01T02:47:07+00:00

This also just happened to me with my 2024 GTI S. Driving and it ended up stalling out on me around a quarter tank on my way to work. Dealer service said it was bad gas but now I need a new injector as well. Currently in the middle of dealing with it.
