Airbag light stuck on, dealer replaced sensor.
Steering wheel controls become inactive in warm temps, no fix.

Transmission making terrible noises, at 80mph dropped into neutral with flashing gear indicators lights, once car came to 1st gear speeds it shifted into 1st and wouldn't up-shift until car was stopped and restarted. Transmission noises now even worse, take to dealer for repair, once fixed driving across the street to trade in for a Honda.
2.0t and DSG is the best combo out there.
Push you to the back of your seat torque, especially 40mph to 90mph.
Consistent reliability issues are likely to leave vehicle stranded.
Amazed a car with only 40k miles can have so many problems. I'll be staying away from German cars from now on.
I absolutely LOVE the VW interior and the styling. I want to buy a VW SO BAD, but... I just can't spend my $$$ on something that is going to break down all the time.
Stay away! VW has been making lemons for many years now. Nothing has changed. These cars are an absolute nightmare. Look elsewhere.
I bought my '06 2.0T November 2007, and have loved it. However, my check engine light came on for the first time this morning! Just under 25k miles. : (Off to the dealer I go at the first opportunity. I guess I should have done my homework before buying it!
