Description of the problem	Was on my way to work one morning while in the middle of my drive going 60mph my diesel glow plug light started to blink and the check engine light came on along with loss of power to my vehicle. Had to manage to avoid traffic and pull over to the side of the road and figure out what was wrong. Ultimately had car towed to vw dealership where i purchased car from . They looked over the car, test drove it and stated they didn't see anything wrong with it and reset the mil and i was on my way. The next day on my way to work again , glow plug light starts to blink along with check engine light on and loss of power to my vehicle. Have car taken back again and this time they state it was a bad fuel pump over the fuel tank and replace it and reset the mil and got my car back. That same day on my way home from work the lights come on again for a third time with loss of power to my vehicle. Take car back and this time they replace high pressure fuel pump. Haven't had any issues with it since but i suspect this is something that is occurring in alot of vw's from this year and felt the need to report it.
