I WAS DRIVING MY CAR WHEN SUDDENLY THE ENGINE QUIT,AND ALL ERROR MESSAGES CAME UP. IT WAS RIGHT IN FRONT OF A BUSY INTERSECTION. I WAS UNABLE TO RESTART WHEN TRIED AT LEAST 3 TIMES. I WAITED ABOUT 5 MINUTES AND THEN I WAS ABLE TO START. THE SERVICE DID NOT FIND ANYTHING WRONG. I AM WORRIED THAT IT CAN HAPPEN AGAIN AND I WILL BE NOT AS LUCKY AS THIS TIME TO AVOID SOMEONE HITTING ME FROM THE BACK AS THE CAR UNEXPECTEDLY JUST STOPS. *TR

I HAVE A 2009 VW JETTA TDI. I WAS IN MY WORK PARKING LOT. STARTED THE VEHICLE, BACKED OUT DRIVING OUT OF THE PARKING LOT WHEN THE ENGINE STOPPED AND TURNED OFF. I COASTED THE VEHICLE INTO A PARKING SPOT. TURNED IT OFF AND RESTARTED THE VEHICLE. NO LIGHTS CAME UP AND IT STARTED WITH NO PROBLEM. I ADVISED DEALERSHIP OF THE PROBLEM AND THEY CHECKED IT OUT AND SAID IT WAS OK, AND TO CALL IF IT OCCURRED AGAIN. IT HAS NOT. *TR

2009 JETTA TDI HAS AN ISSUE WITH SUDDEN LOSS OF ENGINE POWER. USUALLY 100% REPRODUCIBLE IN WARM CLIMATE USUALLY HAPPENS WITHIN THE FIRST FEW MINUTES OF STARTING ENGINE WHILE TRAVELING AT 30MPH AT 2K RPMS WHILE HOLDING A STEADY SPEED. CAR WILL SUDDENLY JERK AND LOSE POWER ONE TIME THEN THE REMAINING TIME WILL BE WITHOUT ISSUE. ON AT LEAST TWO OCCASIONS WHILE PULLING OUT INTO TRAFFIC THE CAR HAS INTERMITTENTLY LOST ALL POWER FOR A FEW SECONDS ALMOST RESULTING IN CERTAIN PERSONAL INJURY ACCIDENTS. THIS WAS DUE TO THE FACT THAT AFTER STARTING THE CAR I TOOK A PHONE CALL BEFORE ENTERING TRAFFIC. I FEEL THAT THIS IS A TEMPERATURE/TIME RELATED PROBLEM AS THE TIME I WAS ON THE PHONE WOULD ABOUT EQUAL THE TIME THAT WHEN I NORMALLY WOULD HAVE LEFT THE LOT THE CAR WOULD HAVE HAD THE HICCUP/STUTTER. NUMEROUS COMPLAINTS ABOUT THIS PARTICULAR ISSUE CAN BE...

WE WERE TRAVELING IN BRANSON, MO. FROM OUR HOME IN EAST TEXAS WHEN THERE WAS WHAT SOUNDED LIKE A SINGLE MUFFLED POP FROM THE ENGINE COMPARTMENT. THE GLOW PLUG LAMP STARTED BLINKING AND THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON AND I THINK IT WAS BLINKING ALSO. AT THE TIME I WAS TRAVELING ABOUT 30 MPH. AND I HAD JUST STARTED UP A STEEP GRADE. ALSO, ABOUT THE TIME THE GLOW PLUG LIGHT STARTED BLINKING, THE MFD DISPLAYED THE "MAJOR ENGINE MALFUNCTION" MESSAGE. THE ENGINE LOST POWER BUT DID NOT STOP AND I WAS ABLE TO GO ABOUT 300 YARDS TO A SAFE PLACE WHERE I COULD PULL OFF THE STREET OUT OF TRAFFIC AND PARK. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO THE VOLKSWAGEN DEALER IN SPRINGFIELD, MO. (SPRINGFIELD VOLKSWAGEN) FAULT CODE THROWN WAS P0299. IT WAS DETERMINED THAT A COUPLING ON A LINE GOING INTO THE TURBOCHARGER HAD NOT BEEN ADEQUATELY...

I OWN A 2009 VOLKSWAGEN JETTA TDI SPORTWAGEN. IT HAS APPROXIMATELY 8,000 MILES ON THE ODOMETER. I BELIEVE THAT THIS CAR HAS A SERIOUS DESIGN FLAW, WHICH CREATES A VERY UNSAFE DRIVING CONDITION. ON A DAILY BASIS, I EXPERIENCE A SITUATION IN WHICH I AM WAITING AT A STOP LIGHT TO TURN LEFT, AND WHEN I DEPRESS THE PEDAL TO ACCELERATE THROUGH THE INTERSECTION, THE CAR MOVES A FEW FEET (INTO TRAFFIC) AND THEN STOPS ALTOGETHER. AFTER PRESSING THE PEDAL ALL THE WAY TO THE FLOOR FOR 2-3 SECONDS, IT RELUCTANTLY STARTS MOVING AGAIN, AND I OBSERVE A HUGE CLOUD OF WHITE VAPOR POURING OUT OF THE TAILPIPE AS THE CAR TAKES OFF AGAIN. MY FEAR IS THAT I, OR SOMEONE ELSE, WILL BE UNABLE TO CLEAR AN INTERSECTION IN A DANGEROUS (OR OTHERWISE NORMAL) SITUATION AND WILL BE INVOLVED IN A HEAD-ON OR T-BONE ACCIDENT THAT WILL CAUSE SERIOUS...

I HAD MY 09 TDI TOWED INTO A V.W. DEALER TODAY FOR A MAJOR OIL LEAK. THE DETAILS ARE AS FOLLOWS: I PARKED MY TDI IN MY DRIVEWAY THIS MORNING AFTER A LOCAL DRIVE. NO MECHANICAL PROBLEMS WERE OBSERVED. IN THE AFTERNOON I WENT FOR ANOTHER DRIVE. I BARELY GOT OUT OF MY DRIVEWAY WHEN THE CARS OIL LIGHT STARTED BLINKING, AND THE MFD SAID STOP THE VEHICLE-LOW OIL. I PULLED BACK IN MY DRIVEWAY AND NOTICED SEVERAL LITERS OF OIL ON THE GROUND UNDER MY CAR. I HAD MY VEHICLE TOWED TO THE DEALER BY A FLATBED TOW TRUCK. THE SERVICE MANAGER CALLED ME INTO THE SHOP AND SHOWED ME THAT THE OIL FILTERS HOUSING CAP HAD BEEN SCREWED LOOSE, AND PLACED ON-TOP OF THE HOUSING UPSIDE DOWN. THE CAP HAD A SMALL PIECE MISSING JUST BEFORE THE THREADS BEGIN. SINCE THE CAR HAD 1 1/2 QUARTS OF OIL...
