Oil seals leaking oil all over engine, major carbon build up failing axles. i was driving on the road and the car made a major thud and check engine light came on. took car to dealer next day and they found all seals on the engine are leaking oil and water pump has failed and major carbon build up in engine. found oil on ground of my garage. front suspension known to make crunching sounds when going over major bumps when cold.
First my car had trouble turning over after a misfire. then while driving the car (in motion) as i was coming to a stop the engine began to sputter and feel as if it was lunging forward. i drove it straight to the vw service center which was nearby. now they are telling me it is a timing issue which i suspect to be the timing chain tensioner.

My 2009 jetta has been experiencing issues. the abs light, stability control light, brake light, and check engine light stay on. the car sputters from time to time. i took it to the dealer in my town for the volkswagen recall on the abs system. they supposedly fixed the abs software and module. then they tell me the abs pump is bad but not covered under warranty. it will be $3000 to replace! they replaced the mass air intake, a $442.00 repair and the car is still missing. check engine lights still on. now epc light is on. also, all of my abs lights, check engine, stability control, and brake lights are still on. how do i know the dealer actually did the abs repair? also, why is the abs pump not part of the recall? it's difficult to believe that the software caused the abs module to fail, but had nothing to do with the pump. this car seems to be a lemon. are there any plans to address the abs pump issue?
2009 volkswagen jetta wolfsburg 2.0tsi timing chain tensioner failure. at 109k miles the car would not start in the am to go to work. this happened on 12/23/16. had car towed to dealer and received phone call from service department that the timing chain tensioner had failed. the engine will need between $3600 and $5500 to replace the engine components. i was told by the service tech to call vw customer care because this is a known issue and they may help with the repairs. vw told me they knew nothing about this problem. got a second opinion from a mechanic that was previously employed by vw and he verified the diagnosis. the car is still sitting in my driveway without being repaired. i have since found that this is a very large issue that goes back to the 2008 model year. there are several class action lawsuits pertaining to this issue. one case filed in new jersey in may 2016 has just had another hearing on may 9th 2017 where the supreme court of nj has agreed to let the case go forward stating there is enough evidence ...
Wife went outside to start her tdi and after sitting and making no progress in warming and smelling a lot of un-burnt diesel she decided to shut it off. after she came inside and told me it was not warming up and it seemed to be running out of fuel very quickly i went outside to check it out. i could see that diesel had leaked onto the ground, so i opened the hood and fuel was dripping from the engine mounted fuel pump. i left it overnight at this point to make sure no fires where started. the next morning i took it apart to find out what the source of the leak and after removing the pump, associated electrical, and rubber lines i saw the end of the pump had popped out of its crimped aluminum case. this was allowing diesel to leak past the running electric pump and onto the running engine which at the point of turning it off had covered the entire serpentine side of the engine completely in fuel. it was a bosch part #1k0 906 098a ...
The vehicle was stationary at idle for approximately 15 minutes. fire started under the hood at unknown location. initial smell of "something hot" was followed by smoke through vents. noticed smoke between hood and windshield. paint on hood bubbled in approximate location above oil cap / diesel particulate filter. shut engine off and exited the vehicle.
Car's abs and brake system has been failing once a while causing car to lose control of stability. random "engine workshop failure" many times while starting up the car and car performance gets very limited.
Engine rear main seal failed on 80,000 miles. engine oil leaking.
