Dad wagon wins!
by Red on 6/12/2026 11:03:04 PM
I recently was fortunate enough to acquire a 2011 jetta wagon 2.5l for a really low price due to "misfire" and poor performance. Being a huge fan of German engineering, and had previously owned the 2004 Passat 1.8 turbo wagon(coilovers;catback piped;18"BBS;MoMo steering wheel etc) I replaced the coilpacks with the audi red ones and purchased titanium plugs, it ran like a charm. Went with a cold air intake and straight piped from cat back and 18inch asa revolution rims. You can feel the power increase. I'm waiting to get a stage one tune and maybe a performance intake manifold. - 5.0

Getting this car was my first time buying a car on my own. Prior to this I was driving a 2007 Chevy cobalt coupe and I hated it. Wanted a refresh and got all my money together for this and I was inlove with the Jetta immediately. Granted it was a huge step up from what I had, and there were much better cars out there, but it’s the peoples car for a reason. It’s reliable, fun, and nice to look at. Were my oil changes $85? Sure. But better than driving a Corolla. - 5.0
10 years and 70,000 flawless miles with a VW

VW - in response to a world wide emissions issue - offered to buy my Jetta diesel. The amount they offered - - - well it was similar to the "Godfather" film. (I took the offer) I drove home in a brand new 2017 VW Jetta 1.4L turbo. That was in late 2017. Since then I've not had one single issue. The price I paid was heavily discounted - (both the dealer and the the manufacturer offered deep discounts.............. About fuel efficiency: since new my CALCULATED (miles driven divided by gallons pumped) stands at 40.1 in 65City/35 Highway. My last comment deals with "Fun to drive"......a: very light clutch take-up and positive acting 5-speed transmission synchros make for pleasant operation (LA traffic aexcepted!!) The car is "Pure White" (VW-speak) - and does well during hot summers in CA
