Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: I have a 2000 jetta and its a good car but it has problems like other jetta owners that i have talked to. i have taken it to a shop and asked them about my problem and they told me it was a common problem with these kinds of jettas. the complaint is when i change the oil or have a good amout of oil in the engine it gets eaten at a quicker rate than it should. it takes like 2-3 days then i have to replace a quart of oil or more to make it a good level. the amount of oil being consumed is not good for the engine or for the evironment. *ak
