    I love my JSW but . . .

    the rear hatch is always dirty. Salt and road dirt collect on the hatch even in dry weather and when there is snow on the road I get a pretty thick layer building up. During a recent snow squall I had about an inch of snow built up making the tail lights difficult to see. This seems to be...

    Auto unlock keeps resetting

    I picked up my 2010 Sportwagen on Thursday - platinum gray/black/sunroof. My only complaint so far is that the auto unlock keeps resetting. Any clues as to how to keep it set to auto unlock when the the key is removed?

    Nokian i3's: Any Feedback?

    It was the bearing that was causing the noise. Now that I have had that fixed my car is a pleasure to drive again. I was really impressed with how well these tires handled in pretty heavy rain. The noise level now is quite acceptable - I have to think about the tire noise to hear it now. Judi

    Nokian i3's: Any Feedback?

    I've already had one replaced under warranty at 42K. My car now has 58K and so I don't believe it will be covered.

    Nokian i3's: Any Feedback?

    Whoops, maybe I will love these tires after all. Turns out I have a wheel bearing going. :o It's getting repaired on Friday. I'll let you know how quiet the tires really are once I get the car back. Judi

    Nokian i3's: Any Feedback?

    I drove from NH to RI in pretty heavy rain on Friday. The tires did great, ESP never kicked in once, which it would do with the Michlens. My husband did think I had put my snows on though. I'm still not happy with the noise. I can't believe these are quieter than any stock tires. It also...

    Nokian i3's: Any Feedback?

    I had the stock Michelins on it. I've had the car just over two years and run Hakka's in the winter. I have 57,000 mi on the car and roughly 28,000 on the Michlelins. Hated to buy tires so close to time to put my snows on but the tread was almost gone and I do have the snows on another set of...

    Nokian i3's: Any Feedback?

    I just put I3's on my Jetta Wagon two days ago, so I don't have an opinion yet on performance, but they are LOUD! They are advertised as "Significantly reduces road noise" but mine sure don't. Judi

    Winter Tires

    I've had Nokian Hakkapeliittas on my last 4 cars. My Jetta wagon is the first front wheel drive car I've owned and it was awesome in the snow with them last winter. I run 4 snow tires w/ studs. These are the definitely the best winter tires I've owned.

    B4 headlights: recommended part & source

    I ordered ecodes from Cullen in April for my Jetta and they have yet to arrive. I have emailed several times asking when to expect them and I've been told since June that they are being packed and awaiting shipping. I finally told him to please cancel my order as I no longer wanted them and he...

    3 diesels a Wedding and a BIG NH GTG

    Thanks to all for a wonderful day, especially the Bride and Groom for hosting the GTG. Little did I know when I saw a VW ad in the local paper and realized that my new car could be a diesel that buying that car would lead to meeting some really great people. Special thanks to Tom for getting...

    European Aero Wiper and Arm

    I checked out the Audi rear wiper on my friend's wagon. Looks like it might be a little short for a Jetta wagon. Anybody try it?

    Turning off the bells, whistles & flashing lights

    Re: Turning off the bells, whistles & flashing lig Can I do anything about the seat belt warning buzzer or the self-locking feature? I'm really getting tired of having to go back to the driver's door to unlock the car when I want to put something in the back. I have an '05 Jetta wagon.
