hi, i have a 2000 jetta gl with immoblizer2 that came with one remote, i bought a used remote on ebay with a new blade i cut the blade, programmed the remote to open the door, and i called the dealer to programme the chip for the immobilizer, when i told them that i bought this key on ebay, the guy told me that hi is pretty sure that it s not gonna work, so my question is have anyone tried reprogramming a second hand remote that has already been programmed?? thanks for your help

Hi there,

after I was screwed up by VW with my Passat, I decided to open a website where people can share their bad stories. I am glad I came across to this one. To see my story please go to www.killpassat.com. My site also has a cross refernce to this one.

Cheers!

hi there,

My TDI has failed me once again, this after I put in a new a/c and clutch. This time the FOC#ING TURBO died on me and the ENGINE locked up! The head has been removed and the guys at the v/w shop are puzzled??? Not a good thing the best thing that happen to this car is while it was parked on a side street. A drunk girl hit the car on the left side of my P.O.S. she stopped and her lizard Insurance company is coming out to look at the damage The car isn’t totaled but something is better then Nothing. I get the bad news tomorrow on the cost to fix this NIGHTMARE! After the check comes from the Lizard Insurance Company I’m just going to sell it as is to the shop. V/W doesn’t care and if anyone at that company did they wouldn’t have SCREWED SO MANY PEOPLE. I WILL TELL EVERYBODY THAT V/W IS NEVER NEVER NEVER TO BE TRUSTED

VWoA reports their sales.
http://www.media.vw.com/
VWoA reported their January Sales up 2.3%.
VWoA reported their February sales up 0.2% ( two tenths of one percent).
VWoA reported their sales for the year up 1.3%.
These are very disapointing figures for VWoA. They have been advertising very heavily ( “”unpimp your ride”" “”Three dubs for under 17 thousand”"). They have “”decontented”" their cars to make them cheaper. They are selling their cars at a substantial loss. Yet sales only climb a tiny increment.
VWoA has stated that they want to increase their sales from 235,000 to 500,000. The asteroid will hit the planet before this happens.
