|
2008 Volkswagen Jetta Pros and Cons Member1348 200HP and 207lb-ft of torque paired w/ a 6speed DSG. Its the powertrain used in a few Audis, the GLI and GTI. Compared to the engines and transmission choices of the closest competitors (corolla,civic,mazda3,focus,cobalt,etc.) this is by far the best. |

|
2003 Volkswagen Jetta Pros and Cons Member1889 With minor modifications, upgraded injector nozzels and a performance chip, this car can get up and go when needed. Fantastic acceleration from 70 mph cruising speed to over 85 mph when passing in an instant. |

2003 Volkswagen Jetta Pros and Cons Member637 Lots of torque. |
|
2003 Volkswagen Jetta Pros and Cons Member1040 The high mileage comes with a very driveable engine -- turbodiesel torque comes on very low and is steady up to redline. And the TDI offers as much torque as the VR6 engine and less noise at highway speeds than the 2.0 liter engine. More current diesels are quieter. But... |
