    Advice: 1999.5 Jetta TDI GL - 165K miles

    Hi, We're about to trade this car in and the dealer, who hasn't seen it yet, offered $1000 subject to inspection. Blue book is probably around $1300. I hate selling cars and don't mind losing a little money to avoid the hassle but I'm afraid I might be leaving $1000+ on the table and I...

    MAF covered 7yr/70K in CA, MA, VT?

    Hi, I appear to have the MAF problem - complete lack of power. I've verified low mg/H readings in display group 10 using my VAG-COM tool. At full throttle in 3rd gear at 3000 RPM the best I could get was 635mg/H. Usually it was lower. I'm told Bentley says to replace the MAF if the reading...

    Part number for flasher relay?

    Hi, My wife has been complaining of occasional trouble with the turn signals and hazard lights on our 1999 Jetta TDI. The symptom is that the dash indicator illuminates constantly (i.e. doesn't flash). I'm not sure if the exterior lights come on or not since this behavior refuses to manifest...

    Location of diagnostic port on A4 Jetta

    Hi, I ordered the VAG-COM interface-adapter. I think it's coming today and I'm anxious to find out why the Check Engine light (MIL) has come on in my car. Can anyone describe where the port is for me? Since it's my first post... We have a 1999.5 Atlantic Blue Jetta with 32,000 miles on it...
