Installation video instructions removed. SAGA claiming instructions updated. As diesel engine passenger vehicles become more popular, auto manufacturers have seen an increase in the number of misfueling cases where diesel engine vehicles are mistakenly fueled with gasoline. The resulting fuel system contamination can lead to costly repairs that are not covered under warranty. As an additional safeguard to help prevent a gasoline fuel pump nozzle from being used to fuel a TDI® Clean Diesel engine vehicle, dealers will install a misfueling guard in the fuel filler neck of vehicles affected by this action. Additionally, a new fuel filler neck cap will also be installed. Please note: The misfueling guard is designed to prevent a gasoline fuel pump nozzle from entering a vehicle?s fuel filler neck, thereby reducing the risk of fuel system contamination from gasoline. Even with this guard installed, remind anyone who refuels the vehicle that it requires diesel fuel, and to double-check the fuel pump to ensure the correct fuel is selected before filling the tank.","document":{"url":"https://static.nhtsa.gov/odi/tsbs/2013/MC-10123546-9999.pdf","alternate_url":"https://static.nhtsa.gov/odi/tsbs/2013/MC-10123546-0001.pdf","confirmed":false},"url":"https://open.wenmarpro.com/bulletins/10123546","components":[{"id":"fuel-system","name":"Fuel system","parent":null}],"codes":[],"topics":[],"vehicles":[{"make":"AUDI","model":"A3","year_from":2010,"year_to":2012,"match":"exact","vehicle_ids":["2010_audi_a3","2011_audi_a3","2012_audi_a3"]}],"as_of":"2026-10-19","note":"A bulletin is a manufacturer's communication to its dealers, as NHTSA indexes it.
