Didn't you say 2006? Volkswagons have have 10 year rust warranty. I had my 2000 all redone a couple of years ago. Mechanically it is falling apart, but the paint was shiny!

Engine swap?
I just ended up getting a new used car.
I just couldn't wait for a car any longer and I'm losing business not being able to drive.
If anyone is handy with cars and wants to buy the Jetta and throw an engine for themselves send me a pm, I do have it listed on kijiji as well!

I know there was a think in hong kong or someplace where at 60,000km it was cheaper to replace the engine in a car than pay the smog tax, so there were -shiploads- of engines that were (are?) shipped to n america every year. My buddy was into MR2s for a while and he always got these 60K engines. Now that I think about it I believe he swapped engines because it was cheaper than changing the timing belt/chain.
