| 2005 | ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING:ENGINE:OTHER FUEL TYPES:TURBO-CHARGER | MY CAR A 05.5 VW JETTA TDI HAS BEEN IN AND OUT OF THE DEALER SINCE MAY 24,07 WITH THE SAME TROUBLE. LOSS OF POWER. INTERMITTENTLY, MOST OF THE TIME WITH OUT ANY INDICATION OR NOTICE. THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE WHEN YOU ARE TRYING TO CROSS THE STREET. IF CARS ARE COMING AND YOU PULL OUT INTO THE STREET AND YOUR CAR HAS LOST ITS POWER AND YOU DO NOT EXPECT IT. YOU END UP CROSS WAYS IN THE MIDDLE OF THE ROAD WITH ON COMING TRAFFIC HAVING TO BRAKE AND WAIT FOR YOU TO GET OUT OF THEIR WAY. THIS HAPPENS RANDOMLY SO YOU CAN'T PREPARE FOR IT. IT ALSO WILL LOSE POWER WHILE YOU ARE CRUISING DOWN THE ROAD AND NEED TO PUSH YOUR ACCELERATOR DOWN, AND FIND OUT THAT NOTHING IS HAPPENING, AND YOU MAY HAVE TRY SOME OTHER EVADECIVE MOVE. I NO OF OTHER PEOPLE WITH SAME THE CAR, HAVING THE SAME ISSUES AND DEALER HAVE NOT FIXED THEIR CARS EITHER. *TR |
| 2011 | ENGINE | THIS HAS HAPPENED MULTIPLE TIMES. THE FIRST RECORDED INCIDENT WAS IN MARCH OF 2013. WENT TO THE CAR AND IT WOULD NOT START. IT ACTED LIKE THE ENGINE WAS SEIZED OR A BAD BATTERY. LET IT SIT STARTED RAN LIKE CRAP. FOUND OUT LATER THAT THE CAR WHEN DRIVEN IN COLD TEMPERATURES ACCUMULATES WATER IN THE SYSTEM. HTTPS://DOCS.GOOGLE.COM/FILE/D/0B162-SX2NN5LUZBIDG9HCVR6NUU/EDIT?PLI=1 THATS THE VW TECH BULLETIN ON THE MATTER. IT HAS HAPPENED MULTIPLE TIMES. FROM READING ONLINE THIS HAS / CAN START A FIRE BECAUSE THE STARTER OVERHEATS. SINCE THE WATER GETS INTO THE CYLINDERS IT CAN CAUSE ENGINE DAMAGE. VW DID NOT ADDRESS THE ISSUE WHEN IT WAS BROUGHT IN BECAUSE THEY COULD NOT REPEAT THE PROBLEM. SAID I MUST HAVE KILLED THE BATTERY BY LEAVING SOMETHING ON. SINCE THAN IT HAS HAPPENED 4 MORE TIMES I CAN RELATE TO THE CONDITION. IT IS IN THE DEALERSHIP NOW BECAUSE OF IT. THEY COULD NOT GET IT TO REPEAT AND MAY NOT PROVIDE A FIX (ALTHOUGH THE GIVEN FIX DOES NOT 100% FIX IT I WAS TOLD BY A TECH.) *TR |
