    Buy Back Spreadsheet - Track our buyback status

    Turned in my 2014 Jetta TDI yesterday. I was at the dealership a few hours early to get a new car before buyback and the buyback specialist was free, so I ended up doing that first. VW gave me a check and I did not have any issues. The only thing notable that happened was the buyback...

    If you are considering buyback which cars are you looking at as replacements?

    After rescheduling my buyback date twice because I couldn't find a car I enjoyed driving as much as my TDI, and test driving the Mazda 3 and Mazda 6, all of the Subarus, and Honda Accord and becoming weary of test drives, I went back to VW for my next car. I got another jetta - a 2017 jetta 18.t...

    If you are considering buyback which cars are you looking at as replacements?

    With a buyback date of early April, I need to get into gear and go car shopping. I am having difficulty finding something that even comes close to the gas mileage of my Jetta, has the same responsiveness (0-to-60 and braking), and is as fun to drive. I would keep the Jetta, but my windshield...

    New here, how do I disable beep when I lock my car?

    You are so lucky to have a dealer who was willing to do this for you. My dealer offered to charge me $150 to investigate it with no promises that they could make this change. I've been bothering VW Corporate about it with emails every couple of days and got an message from them saying it could...

    New here, how do I disable beep when I lock my car?

    Thanks to all for your suggestions, I've found someone through the locator map with vcds, and I've also been writing VW corporate emails every couple of days. VW corporate is located a couple of miles from me, I could go over there in person if I have to. That might be entertaining. Wish me luck!

    New here, how do I disable beep when I lock my car?

    My dealer said they didn't know how to do it. They said they'd had other customers ask for the same adjustment and they could not do it :mad:. I found someone near me who has VAG-COM, hope that's going to work out! I cannot lock it from the inside and then close the doors - I've tried this and...

    New to TDIClub? Introduce yourself here!

    New 2014 Jetta New to VW, bought a red 2014 Jetta value edition TDI just before Christmas. My previous car was a 2002 Ford that I'd bought in 2003 that was the only other car I'd ever owned so it's taking me a bit to adjust to a new one. My biggest consideration when looking for a new car was...

    New here, how do I disable beep when I lock my car?

    I got a 2014 Jetta Value Edition TDI in red a few weeks ago and I'm glad I stumbled upon these forums, lots of good info here! The Jetta is great so far. I bought it with a few miles on it and a full tank. I've driven about 850 mi and refueled it only once so far when it was at half a tank...
