Take a look at Fuelly.com Jetta 1.4l engines really give impressive mpg for a gasoline engine. Checkout 2019 1.4l Jettas on Fuelly.com and you will see average mpg is nearly 36mpg, whereas Honda Civic same year is 34mpg. Even the Mitsubishi Mirage: gives 38mpg but only 10 cars listed, so not...

Just want to share. Many years ago, I had the timing belt changed on my 200kmiles 1984 Rabbit, following recommendation from the service dept. Well 5k later the belt skipped a few teeth, and busted my motor....tensioner problem.

Thanks Crashtested. I have applied for the reimbursement last week.

Thanks , Same thing in Canada. I have applied for a reimbursement last week. VW had already paid 50%, so I'm going for a $200 additional refund

Agree. Seems the starter is draining all the power.

WARNING PRIOR TO DECLOGGING DPF OK

WARNING PRIOR TO DECLOGGING G235 temperature testing

WARNING PRIOR TO DECLOGGING Risk of fire - replace DPF

Close call for the dpf filter - Got the G235 temperature sensor repaired January 22. - Three days before my scheduled repair, the DPF light went on again. I tried to kick it off driving 3000 rpm for a couple of hours without any luck. - Went for my repair. Dealer replaced the sensor. However...

just a thought...when it's cold, car takes longer to warm up, and more soot is produced.

90 000 miles on my 2009 Jeta. Minor problème (rear light, front light beams, replaced one tie Rod end) before I got to 75k. Since one year: exhaust flap, and oxygen sensor replaced, and now G235 exhaust temp sensor sensor will be replaced this week. Hopefully, nothing more serious will be...

I am scheduled for a Temp sensor replacement next week... hope I won't have bad news about the DPF. Good to know there's one is around though.

My repair is scheduled for next Tuesday. We'll see how much it costs.

In the city where I live, 2009 + TDI's are very common. The VW dealer has never replaced a TP sensor (G235) before on Jettas or Golfs (TDI Toureg only, because of the urea system). Nor has the largest import car service center. And since 1 week, no more signs of defect what's so ever. That's why...

The car sputtered at low RPM, but at 2200 and over, ran fine. Thanks for your input Efchou. You are probably right. The thing is nobody seems to know for sure. Right now, all warning lights are off, and the car no longer sputters and has plenty of power. I think that driving the engine at high...

Worries only This is exactly what I'm going thru right now: blinking glow plug light, Check engine light. Dealer says Temperature sensors just past the motors needs to be replaced. $900 estimate. Now the dealer says he will give me a $300 credit. I've still haven't decided to replace the...

Check Fuelly.com for car efficiency (I've done it) and you will see plenty of 2009 Prius doing no better than 2009 Jettas. If your Prius is 2012 then you are not really fair comparing it to a 2009 tdi. But like you I also tend to believe that new Prius does better overall than new Jettas or...

A very sad story Let me tell you a true story. My girl friend has owned gas VW for 12 years. She decided last she would go for a change and bought a 2012 Nissan Juke. Before buying we tried many cars and SUVs, andthe Nissan was the onee that really impressed us the most. Great vehicule, but now...

My 2009 Jetta: 85000 miles, $800 repairs in 4 years but no brakes, suspension, radiator, bearings, shock repairs. Most gassers have done plenty of maintenance in these areas. And 43mpg all time average doing plenty of city driving. In Canada, roads are rough, cracks, bumps, potholes. This car...

Hope you will be better off with a Prius. TDI CLUB is too much a great site for posting grievances about our car, and I'm afraid all this is giving the impression TDI's are bad cars compared to others. There does'nt seem to be as good sites for other manufacturers. This site has plenty of...
