[quote=“GhettoDaxx,post:27,topic:30512"”]

and cmon, honestly, these vw’s cant require more than what, 1 fix per year?

I bought my Jetta in January 2005 with 57k on it. It now has 101k. In that time I have fixed:

1.Broken idler pulley/shredded belt  
2.Regreased whining idler pulley when all the grease leaked out again  
3.Clutch  
4.2 seized rear calipers, including gouged pads & discs  
5.Fan Control Module died  
6.Clutch gave up the ghost  
7.Wiper base link seized  
8.Alternator  
9.Glove box door  
10.Center console storage bin latch  
11.Nasy rattle in driver’s side A pillar  
12.Nasty rattle in passenger side A pillar  
13.E-brake lines  
14.E-brake lines (these cars do not like non-VW replacement parts)  
15.Clicking from FR corner (turned out to be 2 rust chunks in the hub)  
16.Rotary Crossover Valve bushings  
17.Brake light switch (Which is under recall, but only covered once. This car is on at least its 3rd switch.)  
18.I’ve got a tranny oil leak I haven’t bothered fixing

So unless I’m forgetting something, that’s about 30 months and 18 things that have needed fixing, which is 7.2 fixes per year. 🙂
