Default 2011-14, Q5 2.0T, PCV valve recall notice....

Received a letter in the mail today from Audi to have it replaced.

Since it covers 4 years it looks like a lot of the 2.0Ts are involved.

I haven't received the letter yet, but a few days ago I noticed a page on the Audi owners website where you can type in for VIN and see if there are any open recalls or Service Campaigns on the car. Mine came up for this recall, and when I called to check on it the dealership said just bring it in and they'd replace the valve which I did.

The previous 2.0T (EA113) had a recall on it's PVC system years later as well.
Is it a while you wait fix or did you have to leave your car?

It took about an hour. When I made the appointment I told them that I'd wait.
