problem #3

Jetta SE 2.5L

  • Automatic transmission
  • 49,000 miles

Engine Light came on in my 2012 VW Jetta SE at 49,000 miles so I took it to VW dealer to have the sensor light turned off. I was convinced I needed to update the software. I have owned many VWs and never ever had to update software. (and it was out of pocket because my car was over the acceptable miles for coverage) I am pissed.

Volkswagen customer service is no help. I have had nothing but issues with my car and unfortunately they always say we have not heard of this issue

Jetta Sportline 2.5L 5 cyl

  • Manual transmission
  • 56,545 miles

The check engine light came on while I was driving the car on the highway. The dealer had to replace the MAP sensor, clean the oil traces in the intake and update the software in the ECU, by following the technical bulletin.
