    2015 Jetta CVCA TDI ground points

    Getting a lot of codes, so I want to ensure all the grounds are good. If bad grounds, I would think ECM, etc would not get proper readings and therefore engine codes would start showing up. Have to start some where. So I figure start with all the ground points and ensure they are making good...

    MK6 Jetta TDI hard to start one time then fires up next with one key turn all in summer Tenn weather, why?

    Check to see if your car has the BEM, Battery Electrical Maintenance system, then it requires recoding, as you did install a new battery correct. If it requires the the recoding and was not done the computer will do strange things as I understand. For a car that will not restart after...
