2004 spice red jetta TDI. To date, I have required new timing belt, new oil pan, pads and rotors. Current problem is with the heated seats. One hot spot on the drivers side.

Hi, welcometomyturbodies
Don't know about the seat issue but someone might.

There is a recall for the heated seats - they can sometimes catch fire and burn! Tell your local dealer about it and they should be able to replace the upholstery. The heater element is built into the upholstery.
