As for HPFP issues, they happen to the 2.0 gas cars too? As in the GTI?

Yes......pay an independent to pull the hpfp and inspect the follower, if you catch it before it wears through you're golden, the upgraded follower uses a different material.
there was a tsb on the matter, and they were covering them under warranty.....but.......vw didn't issue an actual recall where you would be notified.
I have also seen where the disintegrated follower got into the timing chain and broke it......
Either way if you have a 2.0 turbo vw this is a very important thing to have checked out before it fails.....
