Jetta ES Diesel Pd

  • Automatic transmission
  • 250,000 miles

It is a know defect on this year and model and VW plays dumb at the dealer and nothing is forth coming from VW. This is a well know problem on the 05 as it was the last Diesels that were sold in the US for quite a few years. They did away with the faulty engine when they started to sell Diesels again. VW should be held responsible for the know defect.

Dealers can never find the problem, I suggested a fuel filter and it was fine.
