On my 02 Jetta, I have replaced two 109 relays within only having the car a month and a half. The first one was the old black one and the second was the new grey one. Each time was right after I started the car and pulled it either into or out of the driveway. Just from this I would assess that it is from the short run time. Would this be a fair assessment, or could I have just received a bad one? Thanks for any advice in advance.

Deffinitely a bad one, they last for ages, the one you took out was probably the original, no idea what happened with the new one that went but it's not that common for them to go so fast.
