This has been the worst car I have ever owned. I cannot believe the lack of quality in this car. I always thought that VW was a good brand with a good reputation but I have seriously contemplated letting this car drive over a cliff (without me in it)!!
Today's problem is the STOP! light and check coolant, refer to service manual. I also noticed the temperature gauge really high as if the car is overheating. I pulled over and the engine appeared to be fine, didn't smell, no steam. I don't know if its the thermostat or just a sensor. Either way, this is the last straw with this car. I will never own a VW ever!!!!!! Please do not buy VW. It's sad that I would buy a Kia before another VW LOL.
