Jetta FSI Turbo

[Tim]

i turned off the auto locking feature on my car today. The GF was getting confused when trying to get out of the car cos u have to pull the door handle twice to get out of the car! once to unlock and once to open the door. Just seems a bit dinky to me

Tyre pressure

I had a look at the tyre pressure label on the inside of the fuel flap but it only has numbers for KPa. What is the equivalent (correct) tyre pressure for the 17" tyre on the TFSI in PSI measurement?

Also, the inside of the fuel flap seems to be flat so can't seem to hang the fuel cap on it when filling up petrol. The manual shows a picture where the cap can be hung on the inside of the flap?

Hey bitsurfr - I haven't actually thought about it , but you're right, there's nowhere for the fuel cap to hook on . .. I had a look in the manual as well and yeah, there appears to be a lil doodad that the cap is supposed to clip on . . .any other Jetta owners (Petrol) with this issue.

I've joined the VW club and ordered a Jetta Turbo FSI over the weekend

I'd like to get a list of things I should check when taking delivery of the vehicle (in particular, those functions that have to be set by the dealer as my car doesn't have the multifunction function 'plus' display) and so far I have:

- make sure automatic locking after takeoff is turned on;
- make sure automatic kerbside function when reversing for passenger side exterior mirror is turned on (left mirror dip);
- driver door open on first click of unlock (does this mean all the other doors will need 2 clicks to open? Actually, what is the purpose of requiring 2 clicks to open?)
- have only order regular NSW premium plates, not the wide Euro style ones, so I have asked the dealer to remove wide black felt backing underneath the rear plates.

Any help is appreciated

check tyres for sidewall damage, wheels for scratches, upholstery for stains and the paint/panels for scratches/dents/chips

reviving an old thread

ive noticed on my jetta that when i'm cruising normally, air seems to come through the vents even when i have the A/Cturned off. Im assuming its sucking in air from outside and blowing it into the cabin...

is this normal? because it seems like the only way I can completely shut out the very faint wind coming in from my air vents is to turn the scroll dial to "0". And the button for the recycle air only seems to work when I have the a/c on, but as soon as i turn the a/c off, there is still air coming thru....

conversion between psi and kpa is

1 PSI is 6.895kPa
so if you use 7 as the conversion its pretty close.
30 PSI is 206kPa
