Well I just experienced my first somewhat major bug with the 06 Jetta pk2. All steering wheel buttons and the horn stopped working on a short trip to the store - I noticed this once I was a few miles into the trip. Got the store and turned the car off - removed the key and restared the car - same thing nothing worked and the MDF was 'frozen' in the miles left screen.

On the way back everything worked as normal - go figure :confused:. I going to check if the relevant fuse or fuses are seated properly. I was pretty upset about this bug since having the horn not working can be dangerous. Anyone else expereince this? I'll post future findings.

I had the same issue for a brief time as well. I just turned the car off and restarted it. No problems since and its been at least 3 months since that happened.

Its going in for its 16km service this week or next... I'll try to ask the dealership to look into it, but thats like finding a needle in a haystack.
