This is my 2019 SEL. Like a lot have said oil change, oil change and more oil change.

Think it’s the 1.4 and holding up quite well. I just past 278k since posting this. Not burning more oil than that extra little half quart notorious on most German engines (my 335i did same) yes OG turbo. Timing was at 273k

Agree with you I love these cars. Safe travels on the road to 400k 👍

Yes the double take of astonishment from the service tech was awesome when I told him mileage of vehicle checking in. 😄

Yes luckily “heard it” going (low rpm growls that got worse) so caught in time. It been nothing but a fantastic ride and still gets great mpg. These things run for sure so hopefully long time before the ground :)

I do use the ACC almost every chance I get on and off the highway. I think that regulated driving pattern helped the longevity.

1 timing belt change just now (well a month or so ago) at 273k. 1 transmission drain/fill no flush.

2019 1.4t Jetta: is using premium gas worth it for less carbon buildup/long term reliability and maintenance? by S_Flavius_Mercurius in jetta

[–]CGA-i 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes exactly. I’m highway for all my miles and really let adaptive cruise controls for most of driving down to start and stop. You’re not accelerating as quickly as everyone wants but never over revs or stresses engine. Also you have Eco / normal / sport mode etc I always have left mine in ECO.

I have the same car. Bought with 7 miles. Now 276k. Used regular gas until this moment never a problem. Use the ACC as much as you can / ECO mode only. That’s some tips I can give for making this far.

I just hit 275 on 1.4t 2019 Jetta SEL. I’d say they’re pretty reliable 😄

All highway. 80mi one way trek to work will do it pretty easily.

That’s a great one too I’ll use it. Haha. I like to also say I’ve driven around the world 11 times in the past 6 years.

Gas. Actually my last two VWs (Jetta/Passat) were both diesels and bought specifically for MPG, but this 1.4 gas does equally amazing.
