Volkswagen Jetta 2.0T Features

Here's a quick video of my 2008 Volkswagen Jetta 2.0T Wolfsburg and some of its unique design features. Two things I missed were the ability to roll the windows up or down when the key is turned in the front door locks, and the speed sensitive windshield wipers that go to an intermittent speed when the car slows to a stop. In addition the windshield washer nozzles are heated to prevent them from freezing in cold weather, the high rear brake lamp is located at the top of the rear window to allow a clear view when backing up, and the high beam headlight control doesn't activate if accidently pushed when using the turn signals, but only if the headlight switch is off (located in different spot). The daytime running lights can also be turned off by setting the parking brake when the car is stopped. The reverse lights do not illuminate (not even briefly) when shifting from Park to Drive and vice versa, unlike most "automatic" transmission vehicles (the Jetta is a dual clutch automated manual). Lastly, there are two red LED lights near the sunroof that shine down to illuminate only the gearshift lever at night (no glare and no stray light at all).

My mom just bought this exact car. I borrowed it today and it was surprisingly really fun to drive. Quick as hell!

Great choice! The Wolfsburg 2.0T is an awesome value for all the features and performance it offers. It's definitely one of the most well-rounded cars out there

I love the MKV Jetta's. I just installed a Neuspeed cat back exhaust on my 2.5I and it sounds amazing.

I also bought that car brand new in 2008. And fully loaded with taxes it was close to 30,000. It drives amazing and with a few upgrades it becomes a real beast. I loved that car

These also have a feature where if the car is off, and you are outside of it you can use the key fob to roll the windows up and down. When the car is unlocked, holding down the unlock button will roll them down and holding the lock button will roll them up. Cool little features for a car this old.

I agree. I own a 2008 2.0 TSI with 17 inch rims. Awesome car, best car I've ever had. Super fast, tons of torque. Quality interior, quality car.

I have an identical 08 wolfsburg Jetta. Just hit 38,000 miles yesterday. Bought it with 29,000 about 6 months ago. Solid car. Intake and forge atmospheric blow off valve installed on it. Perfect car for daily driving. Its faster than my friends 2011 Acura tax 6 speed manual and for almost 10,000 less I would say its more luxurious

Nice upgrades, I'm probably going to install an intake and increase the turbo boost a little bit when the extended warranty expires. My car reached 55,000 miles yesterday, but it's been running strong for the 16,000 miles that I've had it. I'll be posting a video of the car's launch control feature really soon. The dealer had to replace the DSG mechatronics unit, and accidently programmed launch control into the software, but hey that's alright with me :)

Great to hear! These cars require a little extra maintenance than other cars in its class, like synthetic oil, premium gas, and more frequent transmission fluid changes, but it's very fun to drive and very fuel efficient for the power it has

Does it have roadside parking lights? Shut the car off, headlights off, and indicate right or left with the blinker without the key in the ignition.... Does the parking light for that side light up?
@BornToDriveOfficial

Unfortunately, it doesn't have roadside parking lights. I believe Jettas sold in Canada and in Europe have roadside parking lights, because those countries have different laws regarding vehicle lights.

I just bought one today 2008 Jetta 2.0 I would like to know more about it !! Every when do j have to do the transmission fluid chance !! And I see that you use synthetic oil !!
@BornToDriveOfficial
@BornToDriveOfficial 8 жыл бұрын
Hey Luis! Congratulations on the new car! You'll want to do the transmission fluid replacement every 40,000 miles, use 91-93 octane premium gas, and use full synthetic oil for oil changes to prevent any sludge and carbon deposits from forming. Also, make sure to get the timing belt replaced every 60,000-80,000 miles if you have the FSI engine and get a carbon intake cleaning every 2-3 years or so. Lastly, rotate your tires every 3-5,000 miles to prevent tire cupping, as the Jetta 2.0T has a fairly aggressive alignment from the factory

Thanks a lot for all this info!!! My Jetta only have 79k miles what kinda oil should I use 5w 30 ?
@BornToDriveOfficial
@BornToDriveOfficial 8 жыл бұрын
+Luis Vivar 5W-30 and 5W-40 full synthetic motor oils would both be fine for your car as long as they meet VW specifications. A lot of people use Castrol or Royal Purple brands. The VW dealership uses Castrol Full-Synthetic if you go there for your oil changes. Also, I forgot to mention that noisy, crunchy-sounding front suspension bushings are a common problem on the Jetta Wolfsburg, so you might want to have those inspected if you start hearing suspension noise at speeds under 25 mph
