problem #2

Feb 162007

Jetta Turbo 2.0L T

  • Manual transmission
  • 4,101 miles

Brakes still squealing. Happens more frequent when warmer than -15. Worse since previous adjustment on e-brake. St James Volkswagen says this squealing is normal compared to "other" vehicle. Saying squealing due to high metal content in brake pads to extend life. $45,000 car and I'm the only one with squealing brakes at stop lights - very embarrassing.

Jetta Turbo 2.0L T

  • Manual transmission

Rear e-brake cable is too tight leaving the rear brakes part way on. Heats up, causes noise. Solution was to adjust e-brake cables.
