Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: When we cold start of our 2005 jetta, the engine sounds like an airplane engine firing up -- the car revs itself after 10 seconds and then when you put it into reverse or drive -- it lunges. called vw and had the car to the dealership. they agreed that the car had an issue and sent out a vw tech to put a resonator on the car -- didn't solve the problem. then after 2 months of fighting the dealership and vw, we wee told that the car is performing to spec and that vw would not do anything to fix this issue. *nm
