That is definitely true. VW is stealing my window tint and trailer hitch from me since they are not compensating me for the value.

I honestly wonder if the car was actually turned in that way or if that's fake. Seems almost unbelievable!

Wow! That is seriously ridiculous. I was going to pull the radio and replace all four wheels with spare tires (I have another TDI that I'm keeping for the full two years and I wouldn't mind some spare parts around).

Just wondering if anyone has returned a stripped TDI yet. Please, I'm not interested in hearing your thoughts on the ethics of me removing parts from my vehicle that is producing illegal emissions. I want to know if anyone has received full value with their vehicle not having a radio, etc. I...

I find it hilarious that I've owned this un-sellable car for the past year and the people looking to strip their cars are the asses here. As someone who has treated their TDI so well the dealer tells me the cars maintenance history is the best they've seen (apparently not many change their TDI...

Thanks and sorry about the extra post. Google didn't show that thread. Thanks again.

Not sure if this has been discussed elsewhere on this forum but my search didn't yield any results. Anyway, from what I can tell, you can return your TDI in any condition as long as it can drive on it's own power to the dealer. I called the VW hotline to confirm this. Based on this information...

I never use the recirculate and I always turn off the AC a minute or two prior to turning it off. I was told the problem is that in dry climates the condenser doesn't drip (which is its way to rid itself of smells) since the air is so dry. This is what the dealer told me - but being that I've...

Yes, I've read through all the forums and previous posts...and youtube videos on this topic. Obviously I know it's bacteria in the AC. I was told by my mechanic to spray some Frigi Clean (or Lysol) down by the passenger compartment and the AC would "suck it in." Ya, that is not happening. So I...

Question - I've noticed some very faint steering wheel vibration around 30mph under moderate braking. Of course the car doesn't do it all the time. It's a 2010 sedan with 38k miles. When i looked at the pads on the brakes they look like they had plenty of life left (38k on the car and no warning...

Ahhhh...the addendum. I didn't look there but yes, the owners manual does say 4L. I generally put 4L in, do a quick errand, and then top it off after another measure. A low oil light never came on at 4L. Thanks for the info everyone!

During an oil change I notice what appeared to be leaking oil from the areas below. It was an extremely small amount. So little I thought that perhaps I spilled a little from a past oil change (but then I realized how anal I am and realized that would never happen :)) Has anyone experienced...

I have a 2010 sedan and a 2011 JSW and the amount of oil I've read the car takes during an oil change, 4.2 quarts, doesn't seem to get my dipstick to read the car is full (middle of dipstick). Anyone else having this issue? I don't want to add any more to the car for fear of over filling but I...

Hey guys. i've been doing some research on suspension packages for my 2011 TDI sedan and haven't had much luck. I'm looking to tighten up the suspension on my car - something like the GLI/GTI suspension would be perfect. perhaps the TDI cup suspension too. Does anyone know if this is a bolt on...

Hey guys. I have a 2010 TDI Jetta and I swear that after I hit 10k miles my mileage improved about 2-3 mpg. I monitor it religiously. My wife has a 2011 JSW TDI which just hit 10k miles last week. We carpool to work and my drive is 99% highway - about 22 miles. The car hit 49.9mpg today - the...

I am selling 5 liters of Pennzoil Ultra Euro 5w30. This is the 507 00 spec. $10 - but must be picked up from my home in North Scottsdale.

I took my wife's car in today for the 10k inspection and told them to hand me the oil and filter as I wanted to do the change myself. They gave me the Pennzoil Ultra Euro oil.... I'm using Motul so I'm probably going to the sell the Pennzoil locally.

This reception problem really makes no sense to me. i'm beginning to wonder if VW is using cheaper antennas in newer model cars. the fact that my 2010 doesnt have this but the 2011 does makes me think just that. this of course is at the same time when the new jetta was heavily chopped up and...

-Nope, no base nearby. -My 2010 sedan doesn't have any real glitch at this intersection. Only once when I had to sit through two red lights did it blip - and that was for a split second. My JSW gets near it and the radio pretty much shuts down. Also, it will sporadically act up while driving...

I've owned a 2011 JSW for about 7 months. Recently, my satellite radio randomly goes out, will then say its linking, and then start working again. Sometimes it can be just a blip, sometimes 5 seconds. Its very intermittent but also insanely annoying. There is one stop light in particular that...
