VW Jeta Diesel in Minnesota - First Year

Cold winter driving was my main concern with the diesel engine but with the electrically heated seats and it's good heater, this is the warmest car I've owned. The manual gear box makes better milage and shifts easy. Comfort on long trips over 1000 miles was an other concern I had: not to worry, the ride is not too rough and the good handling makes driving fun. Short trips have cut my mileage down but I've still averaged 47+ for the first 22,000 miles.

I drove my '94 Jetta for 2 years...including the past 3 months it's been sitting in my driveway, not worth putting another nickel into it. The worst part about owning this car is that Volkswagens are harder to fix, so the labor costs more, and the parts are so expensive. Simple spark plug wires cost me $100.00! My car just hit the 120,000 mile mark...I know they're supposed to run forever, but no one ever mentions how much it will cost to keep them running. I finally decided to count my losses and recently sold it for 1/5 of what I bought it for 2 years ago.

Has been more reliable than two Toyota Corollas that I have owned in the past. Drove it cross country. The 10yr/100kmi warranty came in handy to fix the transmission at 98000 miles. Sad day when I sell it.

The car had a little over 50,000 miles on it and I have driven it less than 6,000 every year. So, when the second time I used the sunroof and it completely broke, I was a little dissapointed. The cup holder in the back broke, the seat recliner handles just fall off and won't stay on, the antenna fell off when driving down the highway, the driver's seat broke underneath ($1,700 to fix) and the engine overheats if it is a hot day, or you are in bad traffic- then the oil light beeps on. The check engine light is always on, but it has been checked out and supposedly everything is fine. The car gives me 18mpg in town. The radio doesn't work if I have something in the cigarette lighter.
Great Car!

My Jetta has been a pleasure to own. Bought it with 50k and just hit 100k, with only one problem. The sunroof broke about 2 weeks after I bought it. Cost over $600 to replace the track and $350 to replace motor. Other than that just brakes and tires.
