I think you'll have more success in Rio than with the Jetta. Here's a link to the recalls for your rig...take a very deep breath before mashing here .

Best of luck with it.

I'm slightly lucky there, the car is the Wolfsburg Edition with the automatic tranny. (The tranny doesn't have problems so far.)
The only problem is the vacuum leak... and the darn sticker being torn off of the hood.

I do miss my 89 Golf..... too bad the original yowner out a hole the size of a quarter in the differential. Hatched the tranny on Route 80 westbound by mile marker 222. This after having driven the car with no gear lube in the differential for 30,000 miles. (Try that with an American car...Heh heh heh..) Aamco put a new tranny in it... that promptly blew up. Too bad the guy funding that repair failed ot get the lifetime warranty on it, considering he was driving it when the ranny hatched.

Garn, I have luck with cars.....
