Really!???!! you must not get out much. VW is well known for its reliability issues. i've owned 2 (an air cooled and a GTI), and my brother now drives a GTI, so i've had just a bit of experience with them. luckily, we grew up in a family of mechanics.Originally posted by jaysleeves
I would disagree with the comment above saying VW's are unreliable.
i really do admire VW, especially some of the air cooled gems, but they do require a lot of time and $. i'm not surprised at all to hear about the problems with your relatively new jetta.
