Searched a number of times with no luck (tough search).
Looking at purchasing a early 05 jetta BEW.
Currently in limp mode, actuator problem.
So if it's in limp mode would it cause the AC not to work?
My son bought an 05 Jetta TDI with a salvage title 5 years ago. The owner had hit a rock and put a hole in the transmission, the car was totaled because of the expense of a new tranny. A rebuilt tranny was put in it by the seller and my son has not had any issues except for normal where and...
Ok so I'm going to pour some fuel on the fire.
All everyone talks about is how many miles before timing belt change.
For example my wife's 05 BEW Jetta has 21,000 miles on it!
Is it time for a timing belt change?:rolleyes:
The thing I have tried to find out for years is what is the TIME limit or...
My son just drove an 05 BEW Jetta from Montana to Phoenix. Loaded to the max 2 bikes and top rack full of stuff. 2 snow storms, winds that were unbelievable. 21.5 mpg for 1350 miles:mad:. Empty normal long trips 40-45 mpg.

This is the same type of glue that...
My sons window fell, had just enough to get a hold of the window to pull back up.
VW says to use "3M 08641 Automix™ Channel Bonding and Sidelite Adhesive" to glue the glass into the rubber.
Just went through this with my sons Jetta today. He tried to roll the window down during the cold. It didn't go down but a few days later when it warmed up the window fell down inside the door. I was worried that it had the bad clips but was able to get the window up and taped it in place. I...
Very nice photos.
I pointed out to my wife that..what a nice work bench, granite counters and all.
Got to the last post I was not the only one to notice.
Funny thing.
A couple of days ago the wife said she started the car (first really cold morning) and the low fluid light came on. She turned it off to look in the owners manual to be sure but when she started it up all was, and has been fine.
About an hour later got a call from the kid. He wants...
