Well I was finally able to get the Jetta inspected this week... and it passed too!
I ended up getting the DPF replaced by a local VW dealer free of charge as it was still under TDI warranty.
When I bought the car I looked up the VIN with VW so I knew that it had TDI extended warranty for...
I'm from WNY too.
Speaking from experience, the car will NOT pass the OBD (plug in) inspection without a tune that sets the readiness monitors.
It shouldn't pass the visual either without the DPF if the inspector knows what they are looking at. However they may look the other way if your cats...

About a month ago now, I finally got all of the parts for the "un-delete" together. I was able to pick up a fairly cheap used exhaust system that I was told was working when it was removed from the car. The DPF and Cats came from a 2011 Golf...
Hey everyone. Just thought I'd update this post real quick.
After I posted originally, I got in contact with Malone/Tunezilla. They told me that they don't set readiness in their tunes because they are for "off road use only." I had some people recommend getting another tune made by Stevenson...
Hello,
I recently bought a 2012 Jetta TDI with the intention of making it my new daily driver. The previous owner installed a Rawtek DPF delete kit/exhaust on the car and put a Stage 2 Tunezilla tune on it.
