Every Problem With My 2013 VW Jetta

10 years and 140k miles - pretty good run!

[@justus1995]

$900 for a $19 hose install... sounds like a great shop :D There also is a saying in german : "VWs don't die, they only go lower and faster"

[@svenbonne]

How would you say that in german?

[@honeyforce996]

doesn't seem criminal. hose + recharge + probably .. some kind of drier or filter or something. standard a/c stuff in a professional setting. anyone who sees that bodge is going to think the previous owner was a crackhead :/ also surprised you didn't attempt to replace the transmission pan. but i guess at that point, $50-250 was probably more than you were interested in putting into it. same goes for disconnecting the steering wheel button. but maybe that has some weird tie-in to the airbag or something additional

[@saleplains]

@@honeyforce996 yeah honestly i think he was just too mentally occupied with the rocket stuff to really deal with car issues. the majority of these were pretty straightforward things to deal with and its not like this guy doesnt know how to solve a problem. I did have a certain amount of 'dude just fix it the right way' moments watching this tho.

[@AstroCharlie]

My car is watching this video with great concern for it's future. May your new car avoid FAR ditches, large snowbanks, and bad drivers!

Loved this video. We need more of this type of thing from JoeyB's personal life.

[@cabe_bedlam]

That passenger door doesn’t look too bad for a whole dump truck hit. ❤

[@TSpike73]

that's actually a great jetta commercial, it's not car problems, it's used and abused and seems to have taken it like a champ :)

[@bobjohnson7441]

That's what I thought. It's not the car, it's he and his friends. lol

[@CaseyHandmer]

I used to rent a 2013 Jetta to get to the local airport when I was flying. Probably the first "nice" car I ever drove, and the nicest until at least 2018. You've honored it with your usage!

[@chyrt]

Really enjoyable video actually, you telling stories

[@fuzedcable5612]

My grandparents still use a 1990 VW with roller windows (no buttons, just rollers to roll up and down the window), and zip ties that keep the wheels to the car (that part I don’t understand). It experiences the same phenomenon as old people he gradually begin grunting when they get up the older they get.

[@mststgt]

The prices for spare parts from VW are just insane, even here in Germany. For my T3 Bus they wanted €400 for a single front brake disk w/o mounting. At BMW, they exchanged all four disks and all the pads of my old E30 316i for €500, labor and material included.

[@mvadu]

As a fellow Subaru owner, welcome to the club!! They are really great cars.

Subaru gives away stickers for owners, I don't think rockets was one of them, now if you buy it they may have to offer it.. 😁

classic VW, perpetually in a state of not quite dead.

[@robertsteinbeiss8478]

Could Tim D. do the Headlight in the front, Taillight in the back check special before Joe drives off next time?

[@StormBurnX]

As someone who grew up in south florida with no AC this seems like the perfect kind of car for me. Mostly fully drivable, but a lot of nuisances and annoyances that make people want to not buy it. Hopefully I can find one like this someday near where I live instead of a state over, but hey, what a story!

[@What.the_fork255]

I love this type of content i want to see more of this!

[@LiftoffLumberjack]

Honestly, I hardly even care what the content is at this point. I just like Joe and would listen to him tell me anything. How many people do you know that can bitch about their car for 23 minutes and it's actually entertaining! Lol.

[@kitsandham7001]

Unusual video, very enjoyable. It’s the story of every car I’ve owned, you get attached. I’ve got a 2008 Subaru Legacy now (the lower Outback) It’s really good. Subaru Symmetrical All Wheel Drive is unreal. It’s thirsty but good in an apocalypse. I hope you got a Subaru for the abundance of load tie down points alone!

[@joebarnard]

I got an Outback now, and a Subie Legacy was my first car in high school! They're great cars

[@kitsandham7001]

@@joebarnard Good choice! They really are great cars. I could do a video of ‘Every problem with my 2008 Subaru Legacy’ but they’d need to bring back Vines.

[@kimmyyimmel2010]

​@@joebarnardlet's goooo gotta get some metal skid plates and long travel suspension so you can SEND those dirt roads

[@Schmidtelpunkt]

Over here there are plenty of Golfs, so it is extremely likely to find one one a junkyard with whatever part one needs. That way my father kept his Golf alive for 20 years. Not sure about Jettas though.

[@johnhanson6039]

It not the hose, its the drain, recovery of the coolant, and after replacing hose, putting new coolant in, The coolant can cost several hundred dollars per kg. Environment protection costs a lot

[@mccutcheogeoff]

I feel like the car has had absolutely no problems. The driver......... Well

[@420BudNuggets]

2013 Jetta owner, and I actually took care of and maintained my car well and it’s about to die as well

[@OhItsAustinB]

Ill buy it for 20$?

[@Werdna12345]

Fun to hear someone’s car wires in a car that’s 5 years newer than mine

[@liskaliska9148]

its very funny to see almost the same car as mine, except I have a 2012, with a diesel, and its almost brand new compared to yours but its at 135k

[@haph2087]

Subaru Outback is a good choice. Hopefully it’ll fare better driving through ditches at FAR.

[@RocketVlogs]

Rocket cars get abused lol. My 2016 Fiesta ST has been rear-ended 3 times, hit a deer, sideswiped a pole, and been hit in parking lots more times than I can remember. Also I've put over 180,000 miles on it in 5 years. Interior is demolished from transportating fiberglass rockets.

[@leeterthanyou]

I do love a good Tarik video where nobody mentions Tarik. May he hoon that old Subaru harder than you've been fleeced on your vee-dub.

[@VorpalSword9]

"actually, my ass did that" -Joey B

[@mvadu]

Did you actually checked with the parts department in a dealership asking just for the hose? The installation can be done DIY.

[@MrMike7332]

Ran over a whole bumper in my 2013 passat and it dented that transmission cover, ripped off the skid plate and some other side effects. I feel the pain.

[@el7440]

[@brennanthompson]

This is like a Doug Demero video, but it's about the quirks and definitely not features

[@ripper132212]

... the hose is like $50 on ebay. I hope the sealants spent on the repair didn't cost more lmao

[@rjung_ch]

I'll never buy anything from VW ever again. Since Dieselgate I have lost all respect for the company, nothing ever again from them. So, just started watching and I hope you got something different, like a good japanese car 😁

[@chyrt]

Have you ever read into the complete dieselgate fiasco? Honda Motor company also had to pay a major fine

[@rjung_ch]

A Subaru Outback maybe? Good choice.

[@rjung_ch]

@@chyrt many did, BMW as well, Mercedes may also have. They all just kept it quiet. I owned a Civic diesel for 12 years, my second best car ever.

[@linecraftman3907]

Well what can you expect from a nazi car brand 😁

[@chyrt]

@@rjung_ch All car companies have blood on their hands, which doesn't correlate with their quality. If you don't want to support a brand, don't buy new and don't service the car through their dealer.

[@KellyWu04]

The car should go into a museum

[@stevevalley7835]

You must not have received the letter from VW, because of your multiple moves. Was your air bag light on the instrument panel lit? The wire harness that connects the air bag and the switches on the steering wheel is called the "clock spring". Some years ago, VW sent out a letter advising owners of an extended warranty on the clock spring. In May of 2023, VW sent out a second letter, advising owners of 2010-2022 VWs that the warranty on the clock spring had been extended to 15 years/unlimited miles, *IF* the car was showing a lit air bag light, *and* steering wheel mounted control malfunctions. If you had an air bag light, and the control weirdness you describe, and the shop found the problem was the clock spring, VW would have fixed it free.

[@milesholt2074]

It’s Jover for Joe’s Jetta

[@SuperEsybeltran]

a piece of hose n two hose clamps would've fixed that hole. I think

[@dougcoleman8706]

Chronologically? Did all the bad things start at the back of the car and progress to the front?

[@lindc1070]

Most of the damage is from accidents. Is the car just unlucky?

[@Aswaguespack]

Years ago I owned a VW Passat. Fun Car to Drive. Not fun to get serviced. Even simple maintenance items cost much more than any other vehicle I have ever owned. Will not get another VW product just because of the cost to maintain.

[@dereksflying]

So now the vehicle appraiser know what to offer you 😂
