I'm considering buying a new Jetta TDI. Never owned a VW before so I'm looking for some feedback on performace, gas mileage, and just overall quality (especially from current / previous owners).

You are going to get mixed opinions on overall quality for sure. I am not too sure about any problems occuring with the new MKV's (06+) but the problems that occured with the previous generation were relatively minor in nature IMO (maf sensor, window regulators, heated seat recall, signal relay recall, brake switch recall). Only real pain in the butt is intake clogging but that is a whole other story....

We've got 2 in our family, the one that I drive was purchased first. Liked it so much that my dad wanted another one....now have 2 Jetta TDi's in the garage.

As for mileage, here is my mileage story for you to read.

Typically get 800-850 in City and easily 1000+ on highway.

If you'd like opinions from people who own the new Jetta, post a thread on www.newveedub.com. There are a bunch of people there with brand new TDI's.
