2002 Volkswagen Jetta TDI 1.9 turbo diesel from North America
Summary:
Best buy we have ever made
Faults:
No problems at all mechanically, or with the body.
General Comments:
Best move that we made for a two person vehicle. Family friendly also, but not on a long trip.
Mileage is unbelievable with the diesel engine and cost is so cheap for diesel compared to regular fuel.
Great pickup, people are surprised at the power for such a small engine.
Great on highway with two people for comfort and easy to pass when needed.
Wife loves leather seats, but I find very hot in the summer.
Extra price paid for car will definitely be worth in the long run.
Only complaint would be that where I live it would be nice to have a way to manually keep engine speed at 1300 to keep warm during the winter.
Would you buy another car from this manufacturer? Yes

I have a 2003 TDI jetta with alomst exactly the same problems, it sounds like it is falling apart. I just got it 3 months ago, but I am getting out now.
