    Update: Dealer can't find the problem. The stereo is done and they will not replace it. Charge is around $600. SOOOOO..... Can anyone recommend a good aftermarket stereo that works with the 2010 TDI?

    Hello, I was running scans using VCDS last night in an attempt to diagnose an unrelated issue. Now my "service airbag" light and reminder is on. I'm sure I messed up something, how can I get it to turn off?

    Stereo Stopped Working

    I visual inspected the two blue 15A fuses in the right hand fuse box under the hood and they appear okay. Guess I'll go to the dealer.... They "may" be able to replace it "if" they can work something out with VW (assuming it's not the fuse on the unit itself).

    How tough are the bumpers

    I was 'bumped' in the rear by another car. Couldn't have been more then 5-10mph. Nothing seemed out of place, except a hole where the screw from their license plate went through the plastic bumper on my car.

    Stereo Stopped Working

    Hello, So my stereo just mysteriously stopped working. It was working when I went to run some errands, on FM and turned off the car (I know b/c I commented on the song that was playing). When I came back, it did not startup, just a blank screen. No warning, no attempt to start, no nothing...

    DSG Transmission Change

    Hello, As I'm approaching the 40k mark, I'm wondering.... Does this DSG Transmission fluid changing guide apply to 2010 Jettas? I want to make sure I know what I'm getting myself into before I jump in. Someone told me I may need a 'flush', but not according to the guide. Can anyone elaborate on...

    Mine just broke in the same place. I thought it was the muffler, but it turns out it was a broken pipe just behind the catalytic.

    Hello everyone, My 2002 Beetle TDI suddenly is VERY loud. This, I assume, is the muffler. No biggie, but I'm having a hard time nailing down what muffler to get. Autozone quoted me like $350. Say what?!?! So I went on-line, and they seem to range from $75-$250. Can anyone recommend a good, high...
