    fuel door lock actuator noise

    I'm having the same problem. The solenoid inside the actuator only works when it wants to, locking me out of my fuel door. I'm going to try disabling it in VCDS. Curious, is it just that single torx screw to remove the door housing and actuator?

    DIY: Changing from the cloth battery "box" to the hard plastic one

    I just replaced my battery yesterday. The fabric cover was such a PITA to get back on neatly that I simply removed. I can't imagine is serves much of a purpose anyway.

    2010 JSW Starts then Dies

    Just a heads up. Over the last couple weeks my JSW would crank, start, then immediately die. This was intermittant, happening about every 4th or 5th start attempt. I check for trouble codes, but none were listed. Over the weekend, I went to start the car and it would barely crank over. I...

    anyone satisfied with the pano roof?

    It's one of the best features in my JSW. Mine used to have problems closing all the way on extremely hot days (100-106 F), but this seems to have completely gone away. I intentionally open it from time to time when it's very hot. It used to shutter as it rolled itself back, but again, it no...

    2010 Jetta TDI

    It's been a while since I posted about this. First I had the EGR gasket and return valve replaced at about 1500 (after I had cleared the codes myself....came on again after about 500 miles). At around 2000 miles I had both O2 sensors replaced. Car now has around 6317 miles on it and the light...

    Wow. Keep us posted. I'd love to hear your overall impression after you've had a chance to run a few tanks of fuel through it (example: mileage, DSG performance, quirks, etc.). Thanks for the response.

    '09 Sleuthing: Please post your engine break-in experience here

    1. Serious engine-related problems. None, just the CEL issues many have been having (since resolved). 2. Did you do any special break-in driving? If 'Yes' how much and what kind? Followed the spirit of DBW's break-in. 3. Do you use a fuel additive? If 'Yes', at what mileage did you start...

    2010 Jetta TDI

    See my earlier posts. I had my EGR gasket and return valve (whatever that is) replaced along with both O2 sensors (they were done on a repeat visit to the dealer for the same problem code). I've now got about 1500 CEL-free miles on the car. See the part numbers attached to my posts. HEV

    Very cool oil standards chart. Must see.

    What's really scary is to take a look at API SM next to the 507.

    09 & 10 TDI Owners - Do you use an additive?

    Please follow the format: Year - 2010 Model - JSW DSG Additive (Yes or No) - Yes If yes what kind - Schaeffer's Diesel Treat 2000 If yes how often - 2 oz every tank Comments: Runs great. Additive solved our fleetwide fuel pump and injector failure when we switched to ULSD several years...

    Fuel additives for 09 TDI

    The Opti-Lube MSDS sure looks a lot like Shaeffer's Diesel Treat 2000's.

    2010 Jetta TDI

    Okay, I've got 600+ miles on car since the O2 sensors replacement. So far no CEL. This may have fixed problem. Before my light would come on around 380 miles. So far so good. :)

    Seriously awesome Bluetooth RNS-510

    I still haven't found good instruction on how to properly pair my phone with the RNS-510. I can't find any information on the cell phone prep.
