Took my baby in today...

Airbag (driver's side) replacement - emblem scratched upon delivery.

Coolent leak repair

They gave me a '03 Jetta 1.8T. It has coconuts, for sure. But; it's an automatic (sucks!!). Soft suspension, blah..blah.

I just got rid of one a while ago. Warning, don't lower the windows.

Yes, big coconuts and bad windows.

It's a leak from the hose that leads to the top of the radiator. The leak is below the 'T' fitting to the left of the blow off valve. It is the lower hose.

careful with rocks.. my sis got one a month ago... already got a crack on the windshield, took it to the dealership they said there's this tiny lil rock that hit it so its not stress crack or anything so they dun cover it... (i felt the crack and i swear i dun feel any bump from rocks) so can u spell "cheap windshield"?

I think you just did.

Now as far as the thread goes, I'm taking my MSP in tomorrow.. Here's my list:
1. Oil change
2. Coolant bottle leak (The top on the reservoir doesn't "seal")
3. Rotate tires
4. Engine hisses at idle after running for a while (Sounds like a leaking hose)
5. STRONG hesitation in first & second (OrangeMSP's is the same way)
6. Hardcore buckling in second after letting off the clutch. (Pushing the clutch in and releasing again stops it)
7. Occasionally feels like the clutch "sticks" (Push on the gas and the car revs but barely goes anywhere while in gear)
8. Radio chassis is squeaky
9. Subwoofer is blown
10. Battery has died already -- Had to jumpstart the car.
11. Broken cargo net clips in trunk (Don't ask)
12. Touch up paint
13. Have dealership call Mazda's Warranty Hotline to approve the K&N
14. Signup for free tires for life! (Dealership program)

How's *that* for a list? :D

lol u sure your production number isnt #1? :P
btw AGR.. when u got your tires rotated... did they just switch left front with left back.. right front with right back? or cross?

[slug420]

directional tires, so you can only go front to back

im at 7500 and i havent rotated mine yet......is that a bad thing?

[MikeBlueP5]

its about time to. least thats what the manual says i think

[trekv2]

damn u need to rotate these tires at every oil change or 3000 miles! for maxaum tire life, and aslo goes for any tire performance or not.

I believe they rotated them front to rear / rear to front; but they (Owen Alignment) are the pros; I left it to them. I rotate at 5,000 miles.

I got my baby back this afternoon. They fixed the coolant leak, and replaced the airbag. Now; unless it's a warranty issue, I don't go to the dealer.
