Overview & Reviews
A few changes occur on the 2007 Volkswagen Jetta. Good news for consumers: VW has lowered the car's price by an average of $1,400 without making any significant cuts in feature content. The company says the change is to foster increased competitiveness against Asian-brand sedans. On the downside, the popular diesel-fueled Jetta TDI has been discontinued due to its inability to pass new 2007 government emissions tests. Look for it to return next year. Other updates for the '07 Jetta include the return of the Wolfsburg Edition sedan (which has the 2.5-liter engine and standard leatherette upholstery), a new Apple iPod adapter, simplified cruise control actuation, a standard tire-pressure monitor and, as options, a 115-volt power outlet and Homelink transmitter. Finally, VW has renamed the base-level Value Edition trim level just "Jetta."

luv my jetta! - 2007 Volkswagen Jetta
By bklyngal - February 20 - 4:03 amThis is a great car for the price. I bought it pre-owned and consistently drive it everyday. The car now has 38,000 with no problems (knock on wood).The steering on this car is tight and hugs the road. None of the other cars I test drove such as, the mazda3 and corolla could compare to the solid feel the Jetta has. This is a classy looking car and it turns heads, not to mention its fun to drive. If you want a good looking car with style and great steering, get this car-you wont be sorry!

Wolfsburg Edition 5-Speed - 2007 Volkswagen Jetta
By Sonia - February 18 - 2:33 amIve only had this car for three weeks but so far I am very pleased. It has a really smooth ride and is surprisingly roomy. I like the quality and simplicity of the interior, and for 150 hp, its got quite a bit of pep. The only problem so far is that the remote trunk release has been temperamental in this freezing northeast weather.

Bad Brakes! - 2007 Volkswagen Jetta
By david - December 1 - 11:16 pmOverall the car is ok. Im one of the unlucky few that has brake problems. I had to replace the rear brakes and rotors at 9,849 miles. Im still fighting to get it done under warranty. The brake sensor is only for the front brakes so you will find out too late that your rear brakes need replacing.

38k miles does not lie - 2007 Volkswagen Jetta
By Roger - November 21 - 10:46 amIn 6 months I realized how poorly designed it is and you get real concerned about the long term reliability of this vehicle. When you get into the drivers seat, you will always have to dodge the side bolsters. The cars ventilation system makes clicking sounds and this is normal according to VW. My car since the purchase date sometimes refuses to turn over when started, nothing wrong that VW could find. Trunk release does not open in cold weather. If you want an oil change, either buy your own filters or go back to the dealer, nobody stocks them. Gas fuel door was replaced under warranty as well as rear fender clip that holds bumper in place.

2 Years & 40K - 2007 Volkswagen Jetta
By Joe - October 22 - 1:26 amOverall the car has been reliable, but several problems have developed. First, it developed a bad smell due to mold in the A/C condensor. Lysol didnt work so I had to take it apart and clean it with bleach. Now we turn the A/C off a few miles before arriving at our destination and let the condensor dry. Then the lifts on the trunk wore out, which means the lid doesnt automatically open anymore. The third problem is a mild ticking sound from an exhaust manifold leak. Its not too bad since I can only hear it when accelerating moderately onto the freeway. Fortunately, it doesnt appear to be getting worse. Im debating if I should take it to the dealer, lest something else get screwed up.

2007 Jetta Wolfsburg edition 5Cyl Auto - 2007 Volkswagen Jetta
By Greg - September 9 - 10:00 amThis car is very fun to drive, and for its price its well worth every penny. Im a male 23 years old, and sure the jettas are typically known to be "chick" cars, which i found ridiculous, personally. But that just goes to show people, than buying a big truck doesnt make you a man, rising above the influence and not giving a damn what people think perhaps helps. But anyway, what i do find a bit irritating is that the aux connection is in the glove department, which is pretty inconvienant. I dont know what those germans were thinking. The turning radius is great, and for a 150hp it accelerates very well. Lots of space in the trunk, sound quality is decent, heated seats are amazing.

Greatest value - 2007 Volkswagen Jetta
By Cameron James - September 7 - 5:20 pmEverybody wants to spend their money wisely, as do I. If youre in the market for a new or used vehicle, this is the way to go. A must see car, if you have not before. So many standard features, so little price. Check it out, and compare to other choices. You will not be disappointed.

The Wolfsburg Ed. - Nice deal! - 2007 Volkswagen Jetta
By Larry$ - July 25 - 12:30 pmI purchased this car as an alternative to the GTI, GLI and Rabbit. The GTI and GLI were just too expensive when loaded up with the options I wanted while the Rabbit even fully loaded seemed lacking to me. The Wolfsburg Edition is a joy to drive, it handles as nicely as the others in my opinion, and even with the 2.5 has more than enough zip for me. I use it mostly for my commute to work, 25 miles one way and also to load up guitars in the trunk for repair work I do on the side. The trunk space is huge and can be expanded into the back seat area - a big plus for me, the main reason for the GTI and Rabbit was cargo space. This car gets about 30 mpg highway which accounts for most of my driving.

Pretty Nice Car - 2007 Volkswagen Jetta
By JesseJ - June 19 - 12:50 amI purchased a 2007 VW Jetta 2.5L. I like the looks of the Jetta from the outside more than I do the inside. Overall, it is nice and fun to drive. It is a good vehicle for the money. I didnt look at any other car except for the Honda Civic, but didnt like its new body.

Love this car - 2007 Volkswagen Jetta
By Shawn - June 5 - 3:26 amEverything about this car is just awesome. But the most important thing is the turbocharged 2.0 engine, boy it really flies without any turbo lag. Love the ride!
