    How much would you pay? 2011 Tdi sedan

    I looked at a couple recent sales at auction and they are selling around 7000 for similar mileage manuals. The low was 5500 but that was rough and on the high end one went for 7600. Dealer is likely asking 10k and likely paid around 6500

    I Hate Chrome!

    No my front emblem had no clear cover on it. Mine is an SEL but does not have all the traffic assist stuff.

    I Hate Chrome!

    LOL! I like that big black jelly bean name :) You're absolutely correct. Cosmetic mods are very subjective . I expect to get both good and not so good feedback. I always find it funny when folks post outrageous cosmetic mods then get all bu*t hurt when someone says "Not my cup of tea".

    ^^Thank you. I guess it should have been in the photo section after I saw that section :)

    My New 2015 Very Black Jetta

    I've never been a fan of chrome or any silver bright work. I have de-chromed a few cars. After picking up my new 2015 TDi I knew the chrome would have to go. I finally completed the transformation over the weekend. It certainly won't be everyone's cup of tea but I'm happy with the results. The...

    2015 Add temperature gauge

    Strange that they would change mid MY. I guess I have V1 as I don't have a temp gauge and have a SEL

    I'm all thumbs when it comes to this kind of stuff so if I can do it, you can do it. Feel free to PM me if you have any questions.

    2015 Jetta SEL TDI Euro Headlight Switch

    It does not appear to have any effect on the daytime running lights. The auto position is just for the headlights. You still need to pull the headlight control switch out for the fogs. The new switch has 2 steps when you pull it out. The second is for the rear fog light. I never even checked...

    2015 Jetta SEL TDI Euro Headlight Switch

    The kit comes with the euro switch and a small box. One end connects to the switch and the original switch plugs into the small box. There is a light sensor wire that exits on the side of the switch. The wire is about 16" -24" cord. I didn't measure it. You start the install by pushing the...

    2015 Jetta SEL TDI Euro Headlight Switch

    The job was VERY easy. The whole job took me 20 minutes because I went slow. Apparently on the 2015 Jetta TDI you do not need to install the extra yellow wire to allow just the parking lights to stay on. When I took my switch out, the slot they say to use in the video already had a wire in it. I...

    2015 Jetta SEL TDI Euro Headlight Switch

    I just picked up the kit that gives me auto headlights and parking lights by adding one wire. You also have to run the sensor. Looks fairly straightforward. Auto headlights are a must for me.

    FS: 4 OEM VW MKVI 17" 10 Spoke wheels

    I'm selling the stock OEM wheels that came with my 2015 Jetta TDI. These are the 17" from the SEL. I purchased this car new at the beginning of July. The car had 144 miles on it when I replaced the wheels. I went for the all black look. The OEM wheel bolts and caps are included as are the VW...

    Back in a TDI!!

    I finished detailing it yesterday. I keep buying black cars and forget what a PITA it is to detail them. I think it was worse as a 2015 had to be sitting for a while. I'm already getting used to the trans. As @fastcar4re said, S works pretty well. This trans does shift blazing fast. While I'd...

    Back in a TDI!!

    Hi Mark, To answer your question, yes, the splash guards fit very tightly to the fender. They were one option I was glad this car had. I was hoping to find an M6 but just not many (if any) TDi SEL's with manual transmissions. The DSG shifts too soon for better gas mileage I assume. I've been...
