2002 Volkswagen Jetta TDI review from North America

Most recently, the radio won't turn on, tried fuse #42 and it worked.

The engine revs sometimes 150 to 300 rpm while traveling between 40 to 90 kmh as seen on the tach and heard from the engine. This has been going on for several months and have talked to three different dealers who have never heard of the problem. One even hooked up the computer to an idling car, I told the mechanic that you have to drive it, his response was that we can't do that with their computers.

This car has been a money pit; within the last year, turbo, water pump, timing belt, battery, fourth one since new, brakes need to be done, less than 15,000 kilometers.

This car has the hardest interior to clean that I have ever seen, it takes hours to delint the seats and you can't use seat covers to avoid it because they can affect the performance of the seat airbags.
