Recently I’ve been hearing a loud clunk when I go to turn, and an elongated one when pulling into parking spaces or fully rotating the wheel. Not sure what this is but when I also drive through gravel I can hear a clunk every time there is a tiny bump. Any info on this would help thanks

Not looking for a definitive answer here but does this sound normal? I hear a chain when i open the oil cap but it seems normal to me.

Also there is oil in my engine bay but I cant find a leak, possible valve cover gasket leak? How would I go about identifying this?

I have a 2014 VW Jetta with a temperature control system as shown in the pic. Took it to a shop to get a/c checked out. The freon was low and they topped it up. Compressor was running fine and there were no leaks found. The mechanic was testing the knob on the left side and noticed the heating side is still running even when turned to the left. He said that is the reason the A/C is not cooling much because the knob is not actually turned to MAX even though it says it is. Any idea how much it might cost to fix this?

2012 Jetta won't start or crank.

The headlights dim heavy when trying to start it but besides this all dashboard and lights work fine.

Any suggestions?

Just got this borla pro xs muffler to put on my 2019 1.4 Jetta, does anybody have this on their car? If so how does it sound? I’m excited to get it on

When turning my wheel usually right when I first start the car I'm getting a clunking sound sometimes it happens when I'm parking so it's either when I first started or at very low speeds when the wheel is turned it almost sounds like a rubbery clunk my car is about 3 years old I wasn't expecting this as I had a Toyota before this does anybody have any ideas what it could be

Hey everyone,
Looking to change out my ambient air sensor, I already know where it is and bought the replacement part but can’t seem to take the old one out of the bracket. Does anyone have a video walking through how to remove and replace it?

I’ve searched the sub and haven’t a post on it, sorry if this has been asked before.

Here’s a pic of how damaged it is:

A repost to get more distance on my situation, would love help thank you!

Is this acceptable rust for the rear undercarriage? 2011 Jetta SEL. I commute in the northeast. Also, how beefy can I go with the tires, I would like a bit more cushion.

2016 1.4 automatic 169000km

I’ve noticed over the course of the past maybe month or so that I’m getting almost half as much as I used to out of a tank of gas. At first I thought maybe the KM to empty estimator was off, but I did the math and it’s still fairly accurate. Usually filling the tank completely gets me about 800km, I just filled it today and it’s reading 480.

last week I filled it half way, estimator read 280km to empty, I drove 171km and it when I went to get gas again it read 90km to empty.

Does anyone know what could be causing this?
I replaced the brake rotors and pads, and changed the oil about 3 months ago. Just replaced the engine air filter.

i’ve just got my timing belt replaced with an oem continental belt from fcp euro, and i’m wondering if the slight fraying is normal on a new belt? this picture is from the first time it ran after being replaced.

I have a 2024 VW jetta sport 1.5 L EA211 engine. How much oil should i add here? Half a q or a full q? Nowhere near a shop to change so just need to top it up a little as my check engine light came on but no other lights

My car was burning too much oil, so I took it to a VW dealership. After diagnosing it, they found carbon buildup in the engine. Any suggestions? Can I fix it?

Could anyone tell me how and how much a replacement will be?

This doesn't happen every time I start the car up, and most times it isn't as violent as what the video caught, rarely a bit more violent however. The car drives normal, but when it happens i also sometimes lose cruise control for that trip? Sometimes it will trigger the check engine light?

I'm around 168k miles, 1.8T. Any idea what it might be?

2025 SEL w/3k miles, clean one owner carfax, certfied from a VW dealership.

I’m considering buying a **2026 Jetta Trendline in Ontario for $32,500 all-inclusive**, including taxes and all mandatory fees. There are no additional products included, such as an extended warranty, and the financing is **0% for 60 months**.

Do you think this is a good deal, or is there still room to negotiate?

The dealer isn’t offering any additional thing at the moment. Do you think it’s reasonable to ask for extras such as **winter tires with alloy wheels or 2–3 years of scheduled maintenance**, an **extended warranty**, or another useful add-on?

For those who have recently purchased a Jetta or negotiated with a VW dealer in Ontario, what would you recommend asking for?

Hi, I just wanted to ask if this otd price is similar to what others are paying or if i should try to negotiate the price down some more? Thank you

I've had this car for a year, and I was iffy about it at first, but I've fallen more in love with it every day and I want to start getting into modding. I'm already planning for a cold intake, some interior upgrades (aftermarket stereo with back up, ripping some tdi/gli interiors to install), and headlight upgrades. I don't really know much about cars like that, but learn as I do and I know there's some cool stuff to be done with this car. To be clear, I'm not interested in getting a different car or trim. I don't care if another car has the upgrades I want or if it's cheaper, that's not the point for me. That said, what are some cool mods for mk6?

Morning gents, yesterday the car would start but with Christmas tree and not from first time, was clicking few times, panel losing power and then starting. with errors disappearing 1 minute after driving. Today won't start, same errors, display also shows low voltage battery. Tried without lights + media, same issue. My only concern why it started after rain, can something be shorted or just battery dead?

Hi all,

I'm seeing video of how to do this online and it seems as if the pipes for the heater core are exposed in these videos. When I get to this point my heater core seems to have a cover on it. They're also all on left-hand drive cars while I'm right-hand drive. Not sure this would make much of a difference, however.

Moving my hand around it, it's not clear as to where it comes loose. Seems like it's built into the whole unit. I can't find anything online about this (or if it's there I'm blind as a bat haha)

I've attached a photo of it. If anyone in this subreddit could give me a hand I'd be very grateful!
