Our '12 black Jetta TDI has over a dozen bird crap stains in the paint. At least 4 of those stains were from bird dirt that was wiped off in under and hour. The car is great but the resistance of the paint to everyday exposures is extremely disappointing. I have tried every type of...

To pay $22,600 for a 23k mile DSG Premium w/Nav is nowhere near a good deal in my experience. You can get a new DSG Premium for $24k (no nav) or less with 0.9% on a $26k sticker. My sister just did last month. That kind of mileage on a '12 would have a significant value penalty. Trade in is...

Mine is having an issue suddenly where it seems like the engine cuts out for a second. It's a very hard jerk that makes you feel like it stalled or like you hit a bad bridge joint in the road. Very hard thud. Has happened both at constant RPM's and under acceleration higher in the range. It's...

I wouldn't give anyone $500 for anything they don't already have. Dealers have closed overnight without any notice. Never give a deposit you wouldn't be willing to walk away form. $100 maybe, but $500....never. As a side note on color, we bought our '12 Jetta TDI in black and the finish is...

The next time a dealer tells you or shows you a "market adjustment", look at them with a grin and "Wow, what an unbelievable coincidence. I have a corresponding market adjustment myself to make right now" and get up and walk out. Suntrup here in St. Louis pulls that crap. Scum of the earth...

I'd prefer to not have any pouches on my seats. You put stuff in them and then they stretch and sag anyway. As for the one switch, it makes perfect sense to me on the rear of the center console. It's hard for my kids to reach the center console buckled up but they sure can reach the door...

Went with one of my sisters today to help her buy a 2012 TDI DSG Premium. $26,700 sticker, she paid $24,700 bottom line out the door, including splash guards, with 0.9% for 60. Taxes are extra and a separate transaction.

Here's pics.

Yes, I bought them from Sportwing. Can't say enough good things about them. It reallt trims the car out nicely and was made to fit exactly where my ding was. Poof! It's gone and looks great to boot. I'll get pics as soon as my wife stops driving it long enough to snap one. She stole the...

Mine do the same thing. I purchased the VW guards sold thru VW at the dealer. Paid 120 installed.

Installed bodyside moldings today to help stop the door dings. Looks great! Will add pics soon.

The MK6 interior quality hub-bub is likely only noticed by the most avid VW fan but to the vast majority of people will likely be a shoulder shrug. I agree with many MK6 buyers who believe that the quality, fit and finish of the MK6 is nicer than any of the comparable cars on the market. I...

In less than 2 months and I have a lot of marks in the paint. It's been waxed 4 times now by hand, washed at least once per week. This is rather timely in that I drove underneath an "occupied" overpass this morning and got hit with 3 bird bombs. I washed it as soon as I got home at 4pm and...

Wooden brakes refers to the feeling that the brake pads are made of wood, i.e. no real stopping power and glaze over quickly. Reference based on the old soap box derby cars.

What's the scoop with these? What packages/model years included them as standard?

VW molded splash guards.

I paid $22,100 out the door ($23,565 sticker) for our TDI 6M with the monster mats, blocks, first aid kit (why?) and a third key for our '10 Crouton SEL. The price was the dealer's advertised price on their website. The key was the only thing we dealt on and it was simple. Seemed like a very...

No, they spent 30k on a towel and got a free car. I understand the risk of things like this to seem insignificant, but I've spent a lot more with other manufacturers and received nothing. We've purchased a '10 Crouton new in July 2010 and a '12 Jetta new in Jan '12. Having purchased over 20...

Getting ready to tackle this myself. If I get to it before a good answer appears, I'll document.

SMOAV8R, Bommarito Hazelwood has an SEL DSG and an SE 6m. Auffenberg shows a 6M. where did you go? We just bought our Jetta TDI From Bommarito.
