Diesel gate did not break my trust as a consumer. In fact all the opposite democrats in California keep on pushing emission standards in diesel tecnology imposible to reach and make superior in efficiency vs gas engine. But democrats wanted their goverment subsidized hybrids to prevail in the market and be more competitive than combustion diesel, could not do it fair and square. Then what did they do? What they always do, demonize the competitor. Not even Europe have those emission standards, even european markets know that diesel is much more effective than electric vehicles. VW fooled our american burocracy and deliver to me (consumer) what I wanted 55+ mpg highly efficient vehicle with ton of torque. Government played dirty to protect subsidized electric crap with my tax money then VW returned them the coin and cheated on the goverment not on me, once again they built the product that I wanted. After diesel gate I went to VW and bought my first and only brand new car. Since that battle. I love the brand more than ever, you can stand for the goverment I will stand on the side of VW.

I own a '91 mk2 Jetta GLI 2. 0 16v. Absolutely love that car. But as much as much as I love that thing, there is no denying the VR6 in the mk3 and mk4 R32 sounds absolutely amazing I had one in a VR6 in a B4 Passat Wagon 5spd that I regret selling. But VW started losing their way for the enthusiasts with the mk4 when they tried to make a baby discount Audi out of it. Then totally lost it with the mk5, when they tried to make a discount German Camry. They brought some of the magic back with the mk6 until the governments knee capped VW like the mafia looking for protection money for the electric car industry. And the new mk7 is just looks terrible, like they looked at Toyota and Honda's styling and said, we gotta get ourselves some of that. I've owned a lot of VWs, and still own a mk2 Jetta, mk3 Golf, and a B3 Passat. I wouldn't buy a new one today I'm afraid.

Bora 4 MotionAn insult that 4Motion wasn't offered stateside. I still miss my '96 Jetta GLS. Punk kid ran a red light and smashed the nose. Once upon a time it was possible to buy a power egg crated engine and ECU VR6 that had a 3. 2 lower and 2. 8 24 valve upper and shoehorn it into the Mk4. And now VW says there is no demand for the VR engine family. Despite the fact that every time it is offered in something smaller than the Passat, it gets snapped up. Speaking of insults, VW offered the 3. 2 VR6 in the EOS hardtop. Instant sportscar, right? LOL, wrong. They detesticled the transmission in the EOS and programmed it with luxury shifting so that it was lackluster. SO, the same 3. 2 VR6 from the R32 in an EOS was horrifically emasculated. Way to go VW.

we actually did get the 3rd generation in europe, in spain, as basically it was based, just like the volkswagen polo, on the spanish brand Seat, witch they bought, and until recently it was sell outside here, as volkswagen cars repatched. Correct me if i am wrong, please, but im pretty sure i ve seen that car here many times, plus it share parts with other models like my old Seat Cordoba TDI, (amazing Car by they way, it had an indestructible engine. Please do a uptospeed episode on seat, it has a great rally history too: )

I Love German Cars, I had plenty of VW, from air cool to water cool. Now I'm driving and building Mercedes-Benz cars. I hope someday Donut media will do a show on Mercedes-Benz 190e (Cosworth 2. 3-16) yall sleeping on the Baby Benz that kicked ass on the track Aryton Senna drove and won. Come on guys/gals do a show that's gonna give you a lot of likes and views. It's not a boring car to talk about.

Hey guys my name is Libo Mngomezulu I am from South Africa and I recently bought a VW Jetta 5 2. 0 FSI. I am really passionate about cars and was wondering if you guys know of any support groups I can join. I am really into tuning and would like to improve the performance of my car. I just dont know how to go about it. I also want to learn about maintenance tips and mods to watch out for.

I used to own a mkiv. She was the most fun car I've ever driven. She was gentle on the road but could move if you needed her to. She wasn't fast but was a blast to drive (I owned a 2. 0l) and had good acceleration. Unfortunately, a transmission failure killed her and I had to sell her. I was so sad to lose such a great car. I've been looking for a replacement ever since.

Apparently it's something they mixed into the interior material that mixes with other fumes like the exhaust to produce a crayon smell. When you drive it for long enough you don't notice it but all my friends remind me of the smell everytime they get into my car. Haha so yeah, its added to my vw owner experience

My 1999 Mk III Wolfburg Edition ate its third transmission and I haven't had the stomach (or cash) to put into it. At this point, it really needs everything replaced so I should just get rid of it but I can't bear to part with her. My second car, and my second VW. The first was a 1969 7-seater Deluxe bus.

My MK4 Golf's fuse panel caught fire and all the wires under the dash melted. Now I own a buyback MK6 Jetta Sportwagen TDI with a leaky sunroof and a bunch of broken sensors. I love VW through and through but sometimes it's tough to be a dub man.
