Mk7 (2019+) Streak on Windshield

0 Upvotes

I have a 2020 Jetta SEL Premium. I am having issues and have been having issues ever since I got the car. My wipers have been replaced, the windshield was even replaced at one point, and I just got the wiper adjusted when brought it in for maintenance. But it’s just as bad if not worse.
Are any others experiencing this and have figured out how to fix issue?
My right wiper when it goes across, just leaves a streak when it rains or even just wiping it with the stuff… winter is coming soon, and this is just not good because it’s right in my viewing range.
Or maybe I just haven’t gotten the right wipers. I don’t know… 🤷🏼‍♂️ this is extremely frustrating and gives me headache…

I’m a part of the VW family! I bought used 2016 Jetta TSI with 65K on it. I previously had a CRV, it lasted me 245K. I’m really excited to have this as my new daily driver. Any tips or advice before it would be great if you have any!

Mk6 (2011-2018) What’s this noise?

2 Upvotes

Looking at picking up this 2014 1.8 Jetta and the owner said it runs great no issues no lights but makes a rattle noise at idle. 157,000 miles owner has only had it for 1000 miles and isn’t positive if the previous owner did the timing chain.

Mk7 (2019+) Fog Light Help

2 Upvotes

2021 Jetta SEL. I want to add factory looking fog lights. Does the existing lighting wire harness already have the plugs for the new fog lights? Is it as simple as plugging them in and they work? Do I need to change the headlight switch to one that has a fog light position? Do I then need to change code or just connect the wires? Or should I just bypass it and run them from the battery directly with a relay to turn them on with the low beams. Please help.

Says push till it clicks and it clicks but that little plastic piece is barely grabbing on it seems.

Mk7 (2019+) 2020 Jetta. Replacing battery

7 Upvotes

When I had to replace the battery for the Atlas, VW said I needed to do it at their shop as they have to recalibrate the electronics!
Whatever this means.

Is this necessary?

Can I just get a new battery from a car part shop and be change it myself or the electronics requires indeed some calibration?

Thanks

Mk7 (2019+) Why do speakers sound low quality? (2024 Jetta SE)

6 Upvotes

Howdy, I purchased a used Jetta and like it. It’s a solid car with a smooth suspension and acceleration. However, the speakers sound of poor quality. This is strange because I’ve driven a VW before. The speakers aren’t blown because I don’t hear any rattling, just 240p YouTube audio. Please help, I really want to blast my ghetto booty music down I-5. Thank you.
