Hopefully anyone who has a 1.8T with MY 1997-2000 has received this letter...

My guess is, as long as you were the one who paid for the service (whether you own the car or not), you can be reimbursed. Of course you'll need the documentation to prove it.

I got my letter last week. The original owner of my 1.8T has allways used synthetic, and I have followed in the same tracks, so think I'm okay as far as sludge goes (have 108K now). I'm just going to affix the pretty little sticker they sent me and call it good.
