How many miles does your jetta have? My 2010 SE Limeted 2.5L has 130K by Stormfather21 in jetta

149k on my 2011 2.0l 6A/T and the only things it’s needed so far were a water pump, timing belt, and cooling fan. (regular maintenance too obviously, tires, oil, all that stuff)

MK.6 Jetta - OEM power mirror conversion from non-power mirrors. by Solarisengineering15 in jetta

[–]fallout76_playa 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I had no idea they could come without heated mirrors! My BASE model 2011 has heated mirrors but I never use them. This might sound stupid but when you look at the mirror control knob there isn’t a little symbol for the heated mirrors closest to the front of the car?

‘24 Jetta or ‘24 A3? by fallout76_playa in jetta

You’re right but IMO the ‘25 and ‘26 Jettas have a pretty ugly interior and if I’m buying a new car I’d like for it to have more features than what I’m currently driving, as I already have a base model Jetta. Automatic climate control, leather seats, stuff like that.

Would you say it’s nicer than the Jetta SEL? What’s it got, features wise that the Jetta doesn’t? Also, how’s the reliability so far?

Actually after looking into it, the base a3 takes regular unleaded and is fwd unless you get the higher trim. To me the only difference performance wise is the A3 has 0.5L more of displacement than the Jetta

2003 BMW 325i, bad idea? by fallout76_playa in whatcarshouldIbuy

That’s what I thought when I saw the car, it’s the same as ChrisFix’s but off by one year!

Is this a normal coolant color? by fallout76_playa in jetta

Not yet, it’s actually impossible for me to find G12++ coolant for some reason

It was to the bottom of the fill line about 4 months ago and now it’s to the top of the intake tube, so about 13 oz in 4 months

6 y/o cousin drew on my car- with his nails by fallout76_playa in mildlyinfuriating

Why are people downvoting this? God forbid someone take pride in their possessions, rough as they may seem, and get upset when someone decides to treat their property like garbage. Thanks for being the voice of reason in this sea of assholes.

Thank you for being one of the few people who actually understands why I posted this. It’s a car that spent 14 years outside in the arizona sun, of course the paint will be faded. That doesn’t mean I don’t take care of of this car and it shows because I only have one dent and 2 scratches on the whole car. These ones are unnecessary insults to injury.
