2003 Jetta, speedometer floating... by
ascssmith
Hello, hopefully someone out there has had this happen to them. If i
drive my jetta under 65mph, speedometer is perfect. Going to 70 or
better, after a few minutes, the speedometer starts floating from 60-70
mph. If i go below 60 again, it's fine?

ABS, is it necessary? by
dukecola
Hello, All!

couldn't afford new $1200 regulator, so went for the cheaper used part.
Well it failed 3 weeks later and the ABS light is on. So, question is, the
car brakes just fine, do I really need to worry about not having...

Terrence
As the 3rd owner of this 98 Jetta GL, I've now feel as if I have been thru a
hazing of sorts for having changed the oil myself. The previous owner,
appears not to have changed the oil in 20,000 miles. Its a wonder that
nasty things did not happen to Jetta during this time. Anyway, I was...

My Passat (99 V6) was in to the dealer for an intermittent cruise control.
They ended up replacing the cruise control switch but then apparently
needed to "perform throttle body adaptation". This operation failed,
despite there being no previous trouble codes related to this component.
