2005.5 Jetta, TDI, DSG. MFD is acting up, display of miles per gallon jumps around, lots of times displaying phenominal MPG's, like 70-80 MPG when cruising at 65. Was working well until recently, then, all of a sudden. Car has 41,000 and still in warranty (I think) so dealer can fix. Wondering if anyone else has had this problem. Leroy Ford

The fan in my '06 rarely came on, but the fan in the '09 seems to keep busy. Has anyone else noticed this? I'm wondering if this is part of one of the regen procedures.

Hello everyone, I own a small trucking company, and for a long time I have driven diesel pickups. I am currently considering an 09 Jetta TDi. I don't drive anything stock. My 05 Cummins I drive now was stock for 3 days, and the 05 Powerstroke I had before it received custom tuning the day I drove it home. From the reading I have done this morning on here, it doesn't appear there is much out ...

While changing oil today in my '06 TDI, I noticed an oily residue on this connection. It is located on the drivers side right behind the radiator down at the bottom. Looks like it may be a gasket or o-ring seal leaking oil. Can anyone identify what this is? [IMG] [/IMG]

So... my 09 TDI makes heat pretty quickly, I feel warmish air a few minutes after starting up in very cold weather (~25F)... however, my vag com recently arrived and the AUX Heat module is not installed, and Cent. Electronics has aux heat bit unset... so, what is the deal? I also have the 100amp fuse under the hood which from what I've read was supposed to be for the aux heat... So, can ...

Hi all, 2 weeks ago I noticed that on my passenger side view mirror, the leds weren't as bright as the drivers side. Only 2 were working out of 3. The 2 closest to the edge of the mirror. Tonight, when I went to get in my car I noticed that when I unlocked my car only those 2 leds were lit and were weaker than normal. When I got home they were even weaker. From inside the car it was as if ...

Since last friday, my MKV TDI has been making a clicking noise coming from around the Front driver's side wheel. This noise increased with speed, not with the engine RPM. I had jacked the car up previously to see if I could determine where the noise was coming from. We were going to bring it in sometime next week to have it looked at, but the noise kept getting progressively worse. At ...

So here I am driving home after a late night at work a day after I came within 2' of center-punching a whitetail, when this HUGE cat comes flying out of the ditch like its tail was on fire, and he center-punched the front of my Mk5. No chance to even reach the brake pedal. I was going about 45mph. I'm amazed at just how fragile the front of these things are. He took out the lower grille and ...

05 and Mach1, could you lead me in the right direction for learning more about blocking (how to) off my EGR. I've read a ton about it on A4s but there isn't too much about A5s except that many have done it. I would like to become one of the many. I've seen tons of "delete" kits from various vendors but never anything available for the A5 BRM PD. ??? Any advice?

'09 JSW TDI, 3905 miles, thinking of changing oil early (5k maybe) then going to 10k intervals by the book with periodic analysis. Looks like a lot of break in 'stuff' in there that it wouldn't hurt to get rid of. Comments? I know nothing about UOA, but can read the comments from Blackstone... Thanks, John F
