On 9/6/2019 i bought 2019 vw jetta 1.4 t r-line tsi 16 valve dohc turbo 4 cylinder w/direct fuel injection. had it back to the dealership the first week complaining about the grinding and growling noises under 40 mph range while driving in city traffic. i was told by another dealership it is normal for 8 speed transmissions. also said the only way stop the noise is to drive it in sport mod , not good with gas consuption but you won't hear it. while making a u turn and coming out of a drive way into city traffic, it has unpredictable acceleration which really shocked me. i left rubber and the wheels made a loud sound on the pavement. it larched twice and i do not trust this car.
