Not Perfect but okay.VW TDI wagon
July 27, 2017
Overall Score
I had a silver VW Jetta TDI wagon. You have to drive in the sweet spot of between 90-100 kilometres an hour to achieve this so-called 1000 km per fill-up. Car is easy to break into. only a screwdriver is needed to jam into the drivers side keyhole. Maintenance is expensive. e.g. Timing belt.oil changes, and other minor issues. You lose all of your mileage saving through fluctuating diesel prices(compared to gasoline) and expensive maintenance and service cost. My turbo went at the end of year 4 but luckily it was covered under the 4 year powertrain warranty. Nice car when everything works but I would not want to own one again off warranty.

Issue:
On certain vehicles, the warning label for the engine block heater cable is written in English only. As a result, a French user may not receive important safety information about how to use the engine block heater. A label that is not provided in both official languages could create confusion.
Safety Risk:
User confusion could increase the risk of injury when trying to use the block heater.
Corrective Actions:
The company will mail each owner a new label for the block heater cable. If you would like help installing the label, you can contact a dealer for assistance.
