2013 Volkswagen Jetta SportWagen TDI 4dr Wagon (2.0L 4cyl Turbodiesel 6M)
2013 VW JSW TDI 6M - - - -
White with Cornsilk interior. Lots of room. Sturdy VTEX (that's VW for leatherette) interior.
Has a clutch, six speed manual shift transmission and the top three gears are overdrives.................
Fuel economy for 46,000+ miles (per Fuelly.com) is 44.3MPG
Steering, braking and shifting very easy. With 236 lb/feet of torque from 1750 to 2200 RPM … acceleration is OK too
With rear seats folded forward, the cargo capacity is huge. ......about 66 cubic feet.
Altho' the electronic compass was delivered read ing S when heading N,
the very capable dealership in California's capital provided a quick fix. There have been zero defects affecting mobility.
As of this update, there has been one repair (covered under factory 3 year/36,000 warranty): EGR/intercooler split seal.
At 49463 miles, i have decided to accept VW's buyback offer. No further updates may be expected forthwith

Volkswagen specifically states that putting biodiesel in your tank will void your warranty and many people have had their vehicles fail. Unfortunately B10 or B20 (10% or 20% biodiesel) is all that's available in several midwestern states.
Be forewarned -- filling your VW up with diesel can kill it.
very reliable

I have put 70,000 miles on this VW diesel so far and not one problem. Still drives like the day I bought it and I do not go easy on my cars.
