Hi All,

Have been looking at your site for a while and decided to join. Lots of very good information. I am currently an owner of a 2006 Jetta TDI which is my fourth VW diesel. Have been very happy with all of them except my 2003 which had a spontaneously erupting airbag syndrome. I drove a Westie Rabbit (1981) Diesel until it absolutely died. This was a great little car that got avg MPG of 72. I hope that I can contribute to the site.

Many thanks.

Hi there, welcometomyturbodies.

Welcome! If I had the airbag problem I would not be "very happy except"...that could cause an accident if you were driving!.

The airbag did go off while I was driving, it sounded like a small gun going off next to my head. VW wouldn't admit to fault, but there were many airbags that discharged erroneously in the 2003 jetta. VW fixed it under warranty, but wouldn't guarantee that it wouldn't happen again. VW even gave me a discount on the purchase of my 2006 TDI, which has been rock solid. I have been a loyal customer for over 30 years.
