Love the 2010 Jetta 2.5!!!!
Great power. A lot of pep and go. We have had great longevity with this car! Just keep up with maintenance and it will last a long time.

I really wish I could say I like it
This is my 4th VW. Its my 2nd TDI. I loved my previous TDI. This one, not so much. I am the 2nd owner having bought it 7/13 with ~17K miles. I have put almost 40K miles on it. It is far more powerful than my previous TDI but fuel economy does not match it either. I have not really had any mechanical issues. Just routine maintenence. I should really like this car but I am just not happy with it. There is a resonance (buzz) in the dash between 1500 & 1800rpm which is where I end up running most of the time. The sunroof shade also rattles. The seats are just not comfortable to me. I'm not a slender person but I'm not morbidly obese either. The side bolsters on the seats make them too narrow. ***update*** In December 2015 I decided life is too short to drive something over 20K miles a year that I don't enjoy. I traded it using the VW TDI Goodwill gift cards to help with the down payment. I took a beating on the trade but I was relieved to be done with it. A year later VW came through with additional settlement money to compensate qualified sellers for the TDI debacle. Between the gift cards and the settlement I think I was made whole financially speaking. Now that VW has "de-contented" the Jetta I do not ever see me owning another.

money pit
I have had my car 5 years/100,000 miles. AC compressor went out last week=$1600. This week, the particulate filter/catalytic converter went out and that is going to cost $5100. At 120,000 miles, the timing belt will need to be replaced=$1200. The NADA on the car is $9000. I will never buy another VW.

Horrible Air Conditioning
My AC started to fail at 40k. Took the to the dealer repeatedly. Per VW of Lafayette, LA - Standard operation of the Air condition is that it takes 8 - 10mins of drive time for the air conditioning to begin working. Eventually my AC totally failed - the compressors on these cars have known defects will produce metal which will contaminate the entire AC system. Both dealer and VW of America refuse to warranty the car. Horrible experience with this car. Btw standard oil change at the dealer is $300! Beware!
Good car
Easy to drive around town with lots of giddy up!
