1985 Volkswagen Jetta review from North America
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Spark plug wires, distributor cap (twice) half shaft on both sides, back up light switch, struts, sending unit, transmission seals, clutch (still in the shop for that), miscellaneous crap.
General comments?
I don't know if an 85 is supposed to fall apart like this. I have always been good to the car....maybe I just have bad luck.
