I own a 2000 Jetta TDI, with 140,000 miles on it and love the car...being a novice,I have a couple of questions, or am looking for suggestions on a couple of issues I am currently having.
I had new brakes put on about a year ago and recently the ABS light will come on, stay on for a couple of days, and then go back off (I start the car, it stays on, shut it off, and the next time it's not on)...kind of annoying, and I took it in and they checked the brakes and all seems to be ok....thought it could just be some kind of electrical issue or something-something I should be concerned about?
Also, I seem to be getting confliciting reports on the timing belt 'how often to change' question. I had it changed at about 75k and have read that with my engine, it should be changed aboout every 40K or so, but also have read with a 5 spd manual trans, every 96k??? (I have the 1.9L)
Confused??? Can anybody give me some sound advice??? thanks!
