2009 Volkswagen Tiguan Fuel system Problems

“I noticed a huge oil puddle where my car was parked. I drove straight to the vw service dept in my area...the car has less than 75k miles & was last serviced by a vw dealership due to fuel pump recall. Upon my discovery of the massive oil leak, I now know was spawned from the pcv valve going bad which has resulted in blowing out 3 seals and requiring a new pan. I have recieved an estimate from a vw dealership service dept and a well know auto repair shop- both have quoted the cost no less than $2000 with potential of reaching $3000. …”
