Avg 40 mpg. I am the third owner and bought the car at 106K in Feb 2009. Cam shaft and followers replaced at about 100K by previous owner and I have the receipt. Runs great, very cold A/C, very good tires, new battery, new alternator. I have receipts for all repairs I've made, tires, battery, etc. I have only used synthetic oil. According to the previous owner (a dealer who had been using this as a family car for two years), the timing belt was replaced at 90K, but I don't have that receipt. I had it checked by a mechanic recently and he said it looks fine. I have only made minor repairs. Look up anne1453 on the TDIclub forum to see any of my posts/questions/problems over the past 4 years: http://forums.tdiclub.com

This has been a very reliable car. It has great power and very cold A/C. I bought a Prius from a friend and no longer need the Jetta. Comes with Autel Maxscan VAG405 computer code reader. There are two glow plugs that need to be replaced, which make the check engine light come on. I bought the reader because I recently had a bad diagnosis of faulty transmission (caused by low battery/alternator - both replaced) and wanted the ability to check the codes myself to sure there are no additional problems if the check engine light comes on.

VW internal investigation finds 'no evidence' against suspended engineers

Tue, Oct 6 2015

Volkswagen is still working out the chain of events that led to emissions-evading software being installed in 11 million diesel vehicles worldwide and deciding who was responsible for the treachery. So far, the German automotive giant's internal investigation hasn't publicly named many suspects, and three suspended executive-level engineers have been found not to be culpable in the wrongdoing, according to an anonymous insider speaking to Reuters. VW knows that the software began being installed in the EA 189 engine in 2008. The internal investigation has found that the emissions-evading tech was created because the powerplant was found to fail US standards. Plus, the diesel mill wasn't meeting cost targets, according to Reuters. The automaker responded by suspending over 10 employees, but three top engineers among them might not have been involved. Those put on leave include Heinz-Jakob Neusser from VW, Ulrich Hackenberg from Audi, and Wolfgang Hatz who led Porsche's research and group-wide engine development. The internal detective work hasn't turned up any evidence against these three men. In addition to VW's own inquires, government investigators in both the US and Germany are taking a serious look into the company's actions, too. So far, the automaker is setting aside about $7.3 billion to pay to fix the vehicles with the evasive software. Depending on what authorities find, the costs could grow quickly. Beyond the financial implications, the scandal has led to a serious shakeup in VW's corporate structure. Related Video:

VW's Winterkorn tells 20,000 staffers of big cost-cutting plans

Thu, 24 Jul 2014

During a gathering of 20,000 Volkswagen Group employees at company headquarters in Wolfsburg, Germany on Wednesday, CEO Martin Winterkorn dropped a bombshell. The boss stated that the automaker isn't operating efficiently enough and admitted the company needs to radically start cutting back to raise its profit margins. To right the ship, Winterkorn has proposed killing off less profitable models and spending less on research and development.
According to Reuters, Winterkorn wants to raise the VW brand's profit margin from about 2.9 percent in 2013 to a target of 6 percent. To make that possible, his plan amounts to increasing cost cutting until Volkswagen reaches about 5 billion euros ($6.7 billion) per year to get things back in order. "Over the short-term, we urgently need more efficiency and higher profit," the CEO said during his speech, according to Reuters.
However, Winterkorn can't make these decisions unilaterally. Volkswagen's works council also has a seat on the supervisory board to represent laborers, and it isn't likely to take the proposed cuts sitting down.
