ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING:ENGINE
WE HAVE 2010 VW JETTA TDI AND WE HAVE THE STALLING PROBLEMS. IT STARTED ABOUT 3 MONTHS AFTER WE BOUGHT THE VEHICLE. IN CA HIGHWAY TRAFFIC I HAD THE CAR STALL ON ME 15 TIMES, I WAS WRECK BY THE TIME I WAS ABLE TO EXIT THE HIGHWAY. I REFUSE TO DRIVE THE CAR ANYMORE. IT HAS BEEN TO THE DEALERSHIP NOW 6 TIMES TO FIX THE PROBLEM AND THEY KEEP GIVING US ALL THESE STUPID REASONS AND THEN TELL US THEY CAN'T DUPLICATE THE STALLING PROBLEM SO THEY CAN'T FIX IT. I JUST WANT THE PROBLEM FIXED AND I AM TRIED OF GETTING THE RUN AROUND WITH VOLKSWAGEN ON THIS. OBVIOUSLY THERE IS A PROBLEM WITH THESE CARS. WE TAKE IT THE DEALER IT RUNS GREAT FOR ABOUT 2 DAYS AND THEN THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT COMES ON AND THEN 4 HOURS LATER THE GLOW PLUG LIGHT COMES ON AND BACK TO THE DEALER WE GO WITH NOTHING IN THE END. THEY KEEP TELLING US IT IS ELECTRICAL NOTHING TO DO WITH THE FUEL PROBLEM. IT IS EXTREMELY FRUSTRATING THAT VOLKSWAGEN WON'T DO ANYTHING ABOUT THIS PROBLEM. *TR

FUEL SYSTEM, DIESEL
JETTA TDI DIESEL ENGINE STALL PRECEDED BY GLOW PLUG ALARM AND SUBSEQUENT CHECK ENGINE LIGHT DISPLAY. THE CAR COULD BE RESTARTED AFTER SEVERAL TRIES AND DRIVEN VERY SLOWLY AS THE ENGINE WAS EXTREMELY SLUGGISH. THIS WAS THE SECOND TIME THIS FAILURE OCCURRED, THE LAST BEING IN NOVEMBER 2010. THE FIRST FAILURE WAS CORRECTED BY A SOFTWARE UPDATE. IN THIS SECOND FAILURE, THE DEALER SAID THEY FOUND METAL FILINGS IN THE FUEL SYSTEM AND THEY WILL REPLACE ALL COMPONENTS IN THE FUEL SYSTEM AND SEND THE PARTS INCLUDING THE REMAINING FUEL TO GERMANY FOR ANALYSIS. GAS WAS SUSPECTED IN THE FUEL, BUT RULED OUT BY TESTING AT THE DEALERSHIP. THE DEALER SAYS VW DOES NOT KNOW WHAT THE PROBLEM CAUSE IS AND THEY HAVE HAD SIMILAR FAILURES IN OTHER JETTA TDI'S. *TR

FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE
AFTER EXITING HIGHWAY, I NOTICED SMOKE COMING FROM UNDER THE HOOD. THE ENGINE TEMP. WAS NORMAL SO I DROVE STRAIGHT TO MY DEALERSHIP. WHEN I ARRIVED I NOTICED A STRONG SMELL OF DIESEL FUEL. THE DEALER TOOK THE CAR IMMEDIATELY AND INVESTIGATED, THEY FOUND A FUEL LEAK CAUSED BY A PINHOLE IN THE FUEL LINE AT THE #2 INJECTOR. THEY REPAIRED THE PROBLEM AND RETURNED THE CAR THE NEXT DAY.

ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING:EXHAUST SYSTEM
2009 TDI JETTA EXHAUST FLAP FAILURE JUST AFTER WARRANTY EXPIRATION. THE LOCAL DEALER INDICATED THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM PRIOR TO THE REDESIGN ON THE EXHAUST FLAP (CHANGE FROM ALUMINUM TO STAINLESS STEEL). DEALER WANTS $600.00 TO REPLACE THE PART. UPON INSPECTION OF THE FLAP, THE MECHANICS OF THE FLAP (NOT THE MOTOR OR SENSOR PORTION), BUT THE FLAP ITSELF HAVE BOUND UP. NUMEROUS ACCOUNTS OF THIS ISSUE WERE FOUND ON-LINE. *TR

POWER TRAIN:AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION
WHILE DRIVING THE CAR WITH THE DSG TRANSMISSION IN MANUAL SHIFT (TIPTRONIC) MODE, THE CAR IS SUPPOSED TO DOWNSHIFT AUTOMATICALLY AS THE CAR SLOWS DOWN. I HAVE HAD 2 INSTANCES WHEN THE CAR WOULD SLOW DOWN, THE TRANSMISSION WOULD DOWNSHIFT (AS IT SHOULD) TO 4TH GEAR AND THE INSTRUMENT CLUSTER MULTI-FUNCTION DISPLAY INDICATES 4TH GEAR BUT WHEN I ACCELERATE TO GET THE CAR MOVING AGAIN, THE CAR FEELS LIKE IT IS STUCK IN NEUTRAL, I.E., THE ENGINE REVS BUT THE MOMENTUM DOES NOT INCREASE. SOLUTION: I HAVE FOUND THAT MANUALLY PUSHING THE SHIFTER LEVER DOWN TO SHIFT INTO 3RD GEAR ENGAGES 3RD GEAR AND GETS THE CAR GOING AGAIN. *TR

FUEL SYSTEM, DIESEL, ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING
VW HAS CHANGED THE DIESEL ENGINES (TDI) STARTING WITH APPROXIMATE YEAR 2004 UNTIL 2007, WHEN THEY STOPPED SELLING TDI TO MEET EMISSION REQUIREMENTS. TO SAVE MONEY AND LICENSING FEES TO BOSCH THEY HAVE CHANGED FROM COMMON RAIL SYSTEM MADE BY BOSCH (FEEDS THE DIESEL FUEL TO ENGINE WITH VERY HIGH PRESSURE) TO VW SYSTEM CALLED TDI PD: PUMP DUSE (OR PUMP-NOZZLE INJECTION). TO ACCOMMODATE THE INJECTORS INSIDE THE ENGINE, THEY HAVE CHANGED THE SPECS AND DIMENSIONS OF MANY PARTS, INCLUDING THE CAMSHAFT. THE CAMSHAFT INSIDE THIS ENGINE HAS THE ADDED ROLE TO DRIVE THE PD LIFTERS, APART FROM VALVE LIFTING AND CLOSING. I OWN THIS TYPE OF CAR VW JETTA 2006 TDI, AND THE CAMSHAFT WORE OFF AT 80,000 MILES, AND YES IT WAS OUT OF WARRANTY AND IT COSTS $3000. APART FROM THE COSTS, WHICH ACCRUES TO APROX $3000 PER 50,000 TO 80,000 MILES RENDERING THIS CAR A LIABILITY COST TO THE OWNERS (A LONG TERM OWNER WILL HAVE THE PRICE OF CAR DOUBLED BY ADDED BILLS TO CHANGE THE CAMSHAFTS MANY TIMES. THIS IMPACTS DRASTICALLY FINANCIALLY MANY FAMILIES DEPENDING ON THIS CAR), WITHOUT THE POSSIBILITY TO FIX IT PERMANENTLY AND FOR ONCE . I HAVE CHANGED THE CAMSHAFT AND NOW AT 115000 MILES IT STARTS TO SHOWS SIGNS OF WEAR, LIKE LAST TIME. NOT CHANGING GEARS IN TIME, CAR IS SHAKING. THE EFFECT GETS WORSE, UNTIL WHEN THE CAMSHAFT LOBES WEARS OFF MORE, AND RESULTS IN VALVES NOT OPENING AND CLOSING IN RIGHT SEQUENCE AND TIME, AND ENGINE WILL STALL, LIKE MINE DID ON MY STREET. AS WELL I WAS ON HIGHWAY AND CAR WILL NOT OPERATE AND RESPOND TO ACCELERATION PEDAL INPUT, MAXIMUM PEDAL INPUT WAS GIVING ONLY 40MPH, EXPOSING ME TO A STAMPEDE OF CARS FROM BEHIND IN A DANGEROUS SITUATION UNABLE TO CONTROL THE CAR. I HAVE EXPLAINED THE SITUATION TO VW AND THEY DENY ANY: WRONGDOING, DESIGN FLAW, FAULT OR LIABILITY. ACCORDING TO TDICLUB.COM THERE IS UP TO 20% FAILURE OF THE ENGINES VIA CAMSHAFT WEAR OF LOBES. I TRUST YOU WILL INVESTIGATE AND REQUEST VW TO ADDRESS:SAFETY+FINANCIAL IMPACT TO TDI PD OWNERS. *TR

FUEL SYSTEM, DIESEL
2010 VW SPORTWAGEN TDI 2.0 TURBO, AUTOMATIC. WE HAD A MAJOR LOSS OF POWER WHILE DRIVING AT HIGHWAY SPEED, GLOW PLUG LIGHT BLINKS, AND FLASHING 'ENGINE MALFUNCTION'. SHE PULLED OVER SAFELY AND TURNED OFF. WE HAD ONLY 4000 MILES ON IT. IT STARTED UP AFTER A FEW MINUTES. CALLED THE LOCAL VW DEALER AND WAS TOLD IT MUST BE A FLUKE. TOLD DON'T WORRY ABOUT IT, DRIVE IT. IF IT HAPPENS AGAIN CALL THEM. IT HAPPENED AGAIN, A FEW MONTHS LATTER WITH 8,000 MILES ON IT. AGAIN THE WIFE IS DRIVING. IT WAS NOT FOR THE FAINT HEARTED WHEN AT HIGHWAY SPEED THE ENGINE LOOSES ALL POWER AND CUTS OUT WITH HEAVY TRAFFIC! LUCKY EVERYONE BESIDE AND AROUND US WERE ALERT! SHE PULLED OVER SAFELY. SAME THING ... LIGHTS BLINKING GLOW PLUGS AND ENGINE CODED MALFUNCTION. CALLED LOCAL VW DEALER, I TOLD THEM THEY NEED TO CHECK IT. ASKED WHAT WAS THE PROBLEM? ANYONE ELSE HAVE THIS SAME PROBLEM? VW EXPLANATION...WELL THERE WAS NONE. THEY WOULD NOT COMMIT TO ANYTHING! HAD TO SCHEDULE AN APPOINTMENT...ENDED UP IT WILL BE A WEEK BEFORE THEY CAN LOOK AT IT. IT WOULD TAKE ABOUT 1-1/2 HOURS SERVICE TIME? I STARTED TO CHECK THE TDI BLOGS FOR THIS PROBLEM. I GOT AN EAR FULL! HIGH PRESSURE DIESEL FUEL PUMP FAILURE. BLOGS HAVE IT AT $9,000 TO $10,000 REPAIR COST? AND MAY NOT BE UNDER VW WARRANTY??? VW NEEDS TO DO A RECALL? I SEE THERE ARE A LOT OF OTHERS OUT THERE LIKE ME. THIS IS NOT SAFE. *TR

FUEL SYSTEM, DIESEL
AUTOMOBILE STALLING, ROUGH RUNNING, LOSS OF POWER, HARD START. HAPPENS ALL THE TIME WITH TEMPERATURE'S ABOVE 40 DEGREES F. HAPPENED FROM THE DAY I TOOK IT OFF THE LOT. HAVE HAD IT IN TO VW MULTIPLE TIMES, COMPUTER "RE-FLASHED" NOBODY KNOWS WHAT IS GOING ON. FROM WHAT I READ ON TDI FORUM'S IT COULD BE THE HPFP HIGH PRESSURE FUEL PUMP, OR SOMETHING IN THE EMISSIONS THAT JUST IS NOT RIGHT. THIS IS VERY DANGEROUS BECAUSE I HAVE HAD THE STALL HAPPEN ON THE HIGHWAY. THE NTSB NEEDS TO GO AFTER VW ASAP TO GET A RECALL ON THESE VEHICLES, IF THE HPFP FAILS IT IS A 10K FIX, THAT IS 50% OF THE VALUE OF THE CAR, UNACCEPTABLE. *TR

2009 VOLKSWAGEN JETTA REAR BRAKE DEFECT CAUSES UNSAFE DRIVING CONDITIONS. CAR WAS INVOLVED IN AN ACCIDENT (MINOR) WHERE BRAKING WAS SUSPECTED CAUSE AT 9000 MILES. BOUGHT NEW 2009 JETTA. HAVE DRIVEN IT 20,000 MILES. AT BOTH 10,000 MILE CHECK UPS IT WAS DETERMINED THAT THE REAR BRAKES WERE WORN TO DANGEROUS LEVELS. VW REPLACED FIRST SET NOW ARE MAINTAINING THAT THERE IS NO PROBLEM AND 10K IS THE RIGHT MILAGE TO REPLACE BRAKES. CONCERN IS THAT MANY PEOPLE WOUDL NOT EXPECT TO REPLACE BREAKS AT 10K MILES, ESPECIALLY ON THE REAR BRAKES. COULD LEAD TO DANGEROUS STOPPING CONDITION. *TR

DRIVING TO THE NEIGHBORHOOD POST OFFICE, THE CAR STALLED WITH THE GLOW PLUG LIGHT COMING ON AS WELL AS "ENGINE FAULT" BEING DISPLAYED ON THE DISPLAY. THE CAR WOULD NOT START AND WAS TOWED TO THE DEALERSHIP. IT WAS DETERMINED THE FUEL PUMP FAILED AND METAL PARTICULATES WERE FOUND THROUGHOUT THE FUEL SYSTEM. DEALERSHIP REPLACED PUMPS, HOSES, AND CLEANED OUT OTHER PARTS FUEL MAY HAVE TOUCHED (I.E.,FUEL TANK) AND COVERED THE WORK UNDER WARRANTY. THE SERVICE MANAGER INFORMED ME IT WAS OVER $4,000 WORTH OF PARTS ALONE. HE DID CONFIRM THE FUEL PUMP IS COVERED UNDER THE POWERTRAIN WARRANTY.

FUEL SYSTEM, DIESEL
I HAVE A 2011 VW JETTA SEDAN, PURCHASED IN JANUARY OF 2011. I HAD A FUEL INJECTOR FAILURE, CAUSING DIESEL FUEL TO SPRAY WITHIN THE ENGINE COMPARTMENT OF MY VEHICLE AND FUEL TO LEAK ONTO THE ROADWAY AS I WAS DRIVING. THERE WAS NO VEHICLE WARNING LIGHTS INDICATING ANY FAILURE OR LEAKAGE OTHER THAN A FUEL SMELL. WHEN I PARKED MY CAR IN MY DRIVEWAY AND TURNED OFF THE VEHICLE MY HUSBAND NOTICED FUEL LEAKING OUT OF THE VEHICLE. I AM VERY CONCERNED ABOUT THE SAFETY OF THIS VEHICLE AS THE VEHICLE AND I COULD HAVE CAUGHT ON FIRE AT ANY TIME. *TR
