Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

3 eligible posts · 0 unverified posts · 1 discussions match the subject in their title or opening post.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

I've found a note in the cars bundle of invoices/history which mentions that the variocam is stuck in the advanced position. This was dated 10 months and 10k miles ago. I'm not too sure whether this has been addressed or not. Has anyone experienced this before? What symtoms should I expect? Is it a big job to fix? Is it advisible to stop driving the car until it's fixed?

POST 3 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Cheers Sandeep. I have spoken to the OPC re the paperwork and they confirmed that they did not rectify the variocam issue. It's due a service in 1000 miles so hopefully it'll all become clear.

This is a source reference. Confirm exact model applicability in the original material.
