My daughter has a 2010 2.5-liter Jetta 5MT with about 68,000 miles. She’s currently at school, about four hours from home. The car sits most of the time. Just this week she mentioned that when she drives the car, it is getting hard to engage 5th gear – like it is stiff. It goes into gear but...

Hi All. Well, I sold my 2010 GTI 6MT. I went in a slightly different direction than others in the forum. I bought a 2012 Accord EX-L Coupe w/Nav with the 3.5-liter engine and 6-speed manual transmission. I found an absolutely pristine one with only 9,500 miles. I wanted a little larger car...

(Did a search - found no answer.) I just purchase used 17” OEM Le Mans wheels with TPMS sensors to replace the 16” wheels on my daughter’s 2010 Jetta. (I was told they came off a Passat.) I changed the first wheel and drove the car down my street. My dashboard had no TPMS sensor light. I then...

I just bought a 2010 Jetta Limited 5MT for my daughter. Spectacular car for the money. (Obligatory picture included.) I have a question for anyone who cares to comment. It is not a big deal, but this car seems to crank about 2,520 rpm at 60 mph and should be around 2,350. According to...
