Description of the problem	My vehicle's check engine light came on and stayed on for several days, and the engine started running abnormally, so i took it to a mechanic. The mechanic discovered that the intake manifold needed to be replaced, in addition to other work on the engine and fuel system. I found out that volkswagen had issued an extended warranty for the intake manifold and fuel injectors of my vehicle's engine. However, although my engine was of the exact same type included in the extended warranty, volkswagen claimed i was not eligible for warranty replacement since my vehicle's vin was not included on the extended warranty list. Considering that my vehicle has been well maintained and is only about 5 years old, i believe that the intake manifold problem is related to the problem that resulted in the warranty extension, and my vehicle should be included in the warranty extension.
