The car has 67,000miles on it and it is 3,600 dollars. The car is in good condition, it sounds like a deal to me. How long do these cars last? From what I've read they last a long long time and are good cars, well the TDI ones anyways, they have the diesel engine

A: Jetta is a German car...my mom owns it. it is a pain in the ass. when parts break, it is very expencive. you will have to maintain it 10/10!! my mom owns a 2002 jetta 1.8 turbo blue.
Avalon is a Japanese car, which is really reliable. it will run for very long. my friend own an avalon for 6 years, and he never had major problems. he did his oil change every 3000 miles, sometimes he even skipped to 6000 miles, nothing went wrong. and parts for it are cheap..
i would def go with the avalon. More space. bigger car. almost the same price, even cheaper. if something blows out, the parts are cheap. VW on the other hand requires special attention. you will have to maintain it at a local VW dealership. and plus the VW is a turbo. so there is another problem. GASOLINE!
my choice: AVALON!
Q: How much would it cost to change my volkswagen jetta 2002's radio.?
ok so i know that you can change the radio on a car and get a gps/radio on it but i have no idea on how to do this and i would love to know how much would it cost me and how i would go about founding where to get this done thanks in advance
A: You can do it at any car audio place, or Best Buy, Frys Electronics, Ultimate Electronics, etc... You can purchase all the stuff from them, or buy them from somewhere else and take them in... You need the stereo, of course, and the wiring harness, and possibly a deck molding kit...
Q: 2002 Volkswagen Jetta TDI brakes problem...?
2002 Jetta TDI. The brakes lock up randomly when braking at low speeds. Usually low speeds, it hasnt happened at medium to high speeds. When i press the brakes, they lock up for a split-second and the car jerks very violently. Also, the brake pedal goes to the floor and makes a loud sound like air being released when it happens. then when it releases the brake pedal slowly comes back into place and you can hear a soft air sound. Now i know nothing about cars but my guess is the brake booster because its a vacuum and theres the air sound. or the ABS pump/controller stuff. Any help would be great. Thanks!
it just started today and i havent driven it since. so im not going to kill anyone.
A: It IS your brake booster, or a hole in one of the lines going to it. Get it fixed immediately, as it's a serious safety hazard. If you want to keep your costs down, look for an independent VW specialist. They are often better at diagnosing problems than the dealer, and don't hose you down as much.
