#2552 of 3686 Re: 150k on a 2006! [elias] by siberia Nov 04, 2008 (7:16 pm)

I have a friend who put 440,000 on a VW Rabbit with few problems - it's still running. He now has 220,000 miles on a NB with few problems.

Finally received my Jetta TDI sportswagon after waiting about three months( ordered 07-11-08). Has DSG transmission. Only have driven it about three hundred miles. Tested MPG on a couple of 30-40 mile interstate trips. If driven at about 60 miles an hour( 1800 rpm) , I got as high as 47.4 MPG. Not bad. expect better after break in. Even at 70 expect 40+ mpg   Handles great.built quality appears excellent. Nice amenities including two 12 volt outlets and a 120 volt outlet. My only complaint is the sunroof shade/screen, the interior can be pretty bright if the sun is at a certain angle.

Replying to: mpgiv (Nov 05, 2008 8:42 am) I have had my TDI 6-speed manual sportwagen for about a month and have put 2,000 miles on it. I am averaging about 39 MPG and have maxed out at about 45.5 MPG on a 200 mile trip averaging about 75 MPH.   The car seems very well built and the seats are far more comfortable than those in my 2003 Passat. I love the panorama sunroof. Makes the black interior far more cheery. Overall I am very pleased so far and my dealer was great. No hassle and I got the car in 30-days.   One thing I have noticed is that the car makes a high pitched hum for a while after I shut it off. Is this normal? Does anyone know what this is?

Replying to: rbidd (Nov 05, 2008 2:12 pm) The most likely candidate would be the electric fans that are probably thermo wired to keep going to cool down the turbo after shut down. To confirm: before you go to shutdown, set the parking brake, open the hood latch then get out to open the hood, get back in, shut down the engine and get out to see if the fan is still on.(making the noise you describe)

Replying to: rbidd (Nov 05, 2008 2:12 pm) Hey, I get the same whine when I shut down. My wife thinks it is the burglar alarm warning---not! It stops in a few seconds. Something must be depressurizing. Oh, my jetta has 1000 miles--have heard a loud metalic 'clunk' while cranking the engine--twice now. Engine starts and runs without a hitch.

Replying to: rjplaan (Nov 05, 2008 3:04 pm) On the Jeep Liberty CRD it's the sound of a small electric motor opening the EGR flow control valve / aka anti-shudder valve / aka anti-run-on valve just after shut down. It is attached to the intake manifold and the CAC hose is attached to it.

I have a 2002 Jetta TDI, the engine light came on. I checked the computer for the code. It comes up as PO672 01 anyone have any idea what this code means ? I can't find it in any book or even on the internet. Replies to this message: altair4 (Nov 06, 2008 7:22 pm) bpeebles (Nov 10, 2008 4:47 pm)

Replying to: geo6 (Nov 06, 2008 6:33 pm) P0672 is a glowplug warning for cylinder #2.

Replying to: rbidd (Nov 05, 2008 2:12 pm) Do you have the RNS-510 Navigation unit in your car? The sound could be the hard disk drive in that unit.
