Volkswagen Jetta Problems

It shouldn’t be doing that. Take it back to your dealer and demonstrate what it’s doing and ask to explain it or fix it.

All Australian-delivered, fuel-injected Volkswagens built after 1986 can run successfully on E10 petrol. Most E10 petrol in Australia has an octane rating of 94RON, and that’s the lowest you’d want to go. Back in the day, VW said the Jetta was better off with 95RON ULP and was not able to use the standard 91RON stuff that many cars could/can use.

If you want a reliable ride go for the Camry, buying the Jetta is a gamble, which could end up being an expensive one.

The newest car in the best condition with the fewest kilometres and the best record of service is normally the best. All are good cars and all should give you good reliable service, but using the above the Peugeot 308 would seem to be the best choice for you.

It's hard to know exactly what you want to know, but briefly the Trendline is the entry level model, the Comfortline the mid-range model, and the Highline is the one with all the gear. The list of standard equipment increases with each model.

Take it to a car radio specialist and have them check it. They should be able to tell if it’s the antenna that’s the problem.
