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."

Pleasantly Surprised - 2007 Volkswagen Jetta
By Sam in Utica, NY - September 29 - 6:10 amMy Jetta Wolfsburg constantly surprises me. After the 1,000 mile break-in, my gas mileage was 34 MPG on my last trip. The car takes regular gas, not premium as noted in some articles. It has plenty of pep with the manual transmission. I drove an automatic five cylinder and was underwhelmed by its performance. Do yourself a favor and buy the 5-speed. Youll save over $1,000 and have more fun driving. My last Jetta was an 03 Wolfsburg with the 1.8T. The 2.5 reminds me of my old Jetta, but the quality and reliability of the 07 has greatly improved.

Brilliant Little Car - 2007 Volkswagen Jetta
By Jetta Lover - September 12 - 2:23 amThis car is stunning to look at and has loads of power, with the Tiptronic transmission and sports mode providing a whole lot of thrills. It has a surprisingly spacious interior and more than enough room for three sets of golf clubs. The standard 6 disc sound system is impressive and the leatherette seats are almost as good as the real thing (and far better than cloth). The fuel economy is excellent. Its a lot of fun to drive and can fit into virtually any parking space. Im seriously considering buying another one for my wife.

Great Little Car - 2007 Volkswagen Jetta
By jenniferow16 - September 1 - 12:52 pmI have owned my Jetta for almost 4 years now. I have almost 70,000 miles, and have had very few problems. My gas milage averages 23 city and 31 hwy. Car is fast, handles well, and is SUPER comfortable. The trunk is very large, I can fit a bike with the seats down. Down Side: maintenance is expensive at least 500.00 every 5,000 miles. I have had a problem with my brakes, which was not discovered in the scheduled maintenance and cost over 600.00 with the extended warranty. My air/vent dial currently does not work and air only blow on high. Who knows how much that will cost. The ipod jack should be in the arm rest and not the glove box. Next car will be a Jetta Wagon TDI, or Audi A4 wagon.

Nice Car - 2007 Volkswagen Jetta
By jessie brouillette - August 8 - 4:26 amI have had my Jetta since 09/05. I have only had one problem with it, which was the truck latch didnt work all the time. They replaced it and I have had no problems since. I have owned Hondas and the Jetta is much better built car on the outside and inside. Especially the seats, they have better quality leather. For people who are shorter, the inside is user friendly and comfortable.

Evo 8 to Jetta GLI - 2007 Volkswagen Jetta
By TucsonDesertRat - June 11 - 8:43 amWell, you may think Im crazy going from high-performance to economical but, this car still holds to the same fun as the EVO 8 w/o the speed or the cops always looking your way. I choose the GLI because of it great features it offers the features of a BMW 3 Series without the sticker price and you get all the extras that the EVO didnt have! GREAT gas mileage! The in-dash display that almost tells you everything about your cars status is pretty cool too! Ill miss the HP and torque of my EVO but, not the highschool kids always trying to race me! ;-) Good job VW!!

love my dub - 2007 Volkswagen Jetta
By johnny - April 11 - 3:43 amI have had the car for 25,000 trouble free miles now and have enjoyed all the car has done for me. Installed drop in k&n filter in place of factory filter and this helps car to breath better and gives car better tip in throttle response, especially when a/c is in operation. Replaced rear pads at 23,000 miles which should be covered under warranty but is not. VW needs to cover this issue under warranty. As long as you take your vw to dealer to be serviced, and drive it in low rpm range when cold you should not have problems with this car, as I have had no problems with my previous jettas. Also volkswagens arent supposed to stand and warm up, drive off immediately after starting!

2007 Wolfburg 42K miles - 2007 Volkswagen Jetta
By swkohnle - March 4 - 8:10 amI have driven my 2007 Jetta with 5 sp manual for 42K miles without any issues. It gets serviced at my VW dealer only at the required intervals. I follow the dealer service recommendations. I love this car. I have it detailed every 4 months. I drive between NY and Pittsburgh every 4 to 6 weeks and love the comfort and reliability this car has provided me. This is my 3rd VW having had a 2000 Passat, and a 2003 Jetta TDI. Both I drove over 200K miles.

Nice Solid Compact Car - 2007 Volkswagen Jetta
By Bob - March 3 - 1:00 amThis car drives and handles well. Its fun to drive and is nicely appointed, but its the most expensive Jetta package, costs over $25,000. Trading in a 01 V6 fully loaded Passat, I didnt want to give up any extras. The new styling is great, and the upgraded 17" wheels make the car stand out. I did not test drive the car on the interstate before buying...big mistake. The road noise is very noticable, much louder than what Im used to. I keep turning up the radio to compensate. If I had it to do over, I probably would have looked more at a midsize car and checked for a quieter ride. If youre looking for a small car and can get past the road noise, its a nice car.
