2002 Jetta Wagon is a good runner

Date of Review:  Feb 17, 2005
Review: Had my Jetta GLS Wagon now since October '01, so I was lucky enough to get one of the first ones available. Now have over 120,000 miles and still loving the car. Only problems have been with the driver's side door (alignment slightly off) and the...

Biggest mistake of my life so far...

Date of Review:  Apr 8, 2003
The Bottom Line: It's too bad there aren't more diesel cars on the market because the diesel engine is great technology. The package around the engine... Plagued with problems.
Review: I purchased a 2002 VW Jetta Wagon TDI. The first problem, which I was told could not be fixed, was the tremendous wind buffeting noise that occurs when the windows are down. I am constantly having to adjust the windows (sunroof, front, and rear) at...

My First and Last VW Jetta

Date of Review:  Apr 8, 2007
The Bottom Line: Will not buy another VW.
Review: Bought a 2.0 litre 2002 Jetta GLS new. Has about 50,000 miles on it now. Fully serviced by the VW dealership since it was purchased.

Piston rings had to be replaced (fortunately while still under warranty) at about 30,000 miles due to...

1.8L Turbo 2002 Jetta...Mixed Bag.

Date of Review:  Jun 12, 2008
Review: This car is a kind of a princess. Have to maintain and keep up the car very well. It is far more costly than it should be, and is not a real good value. Turbo engine is a new experience and it sometimes feels sluggish at first. Give it some time to...

Continuous problems

Date of Review:  Mar 27, 2004
Review: I was attracted to the Jetta for the cute styling, great price, and great handling, but I've never had a car LESS reliable than the 2002 Jetta. Since the first 6 months, I've had the car in the shop every 3 months for one problem or another. Hearing...

Jump on the Jetta Bandwagon

Date of Review:  Jan 13, 2002
The Bottom Line: Highly recommended for anyone looking for a wagon. It costs more than others in its class, but you get more features, plus a drive that's unquestionably German.
Review: If you don't want to spend money on a new car, then don't test drive the new Jetta Wagon. Especially not the 1.8-liter turbo engine. I can assure you that you won't walk out of the dealership without it. Although it costs a bit more than other...

Don't let the Marketing Fool You...

Date of Review:  Jan 24, 2002
The Bottom Line: Don't buy. This car is loaded with problems.
Review: Listen to the title, think about it, and then read my story.

So, I thought I would be cool and buy a VW Jetta TDI. I thought I knew what I was getting into, until problems started. At 4750 miles, my oil drain plug was stripped from the...

Which way to the Autobahn?

Date of Review:  Mar 2, 2002
The Bottom Line: The Jetta fun-to-drive small car with a ride and features that are reminiscent of much more expensive cars.
Review: I had my eye on a Jetta GLX for 6 months before I bought one. During that time I met all of the dealers in my area, and test drove just about every model.

In the end it was a decision between the super-efficient TDI, or the super-loaded...

I love it too!

Date of Review:  Apr 20, 2002
The Bottom Line: Get it for the look, feel, German engineering and VW safety reliability.
Review: We got the GLX VR6 (standard leather w/power everything) with the sports suspension package and I absolutely love driving it and looking at it! My husband, who drives an SUV and complains whenever he doesn't, has fallen in love with it too.

Love my Jetta GLS TDI

Date of Review:  May 16, 2002
The Bottom Line: Love the diesel, not much hp but the torque is awesome! Will probably never buy a gas car again!
Review: My Silver Jetta GLS with all the options is a wonderful car. Gets excellent mileage with the 5 speed manual transmission. Best 54 Mpg, worst around 41 mpg. Leather interior is nice to keep clean and the heated seats are options that I did not think...
