Hello guys,

I just bought a Foreign used VW Jetta 2006 and I noticed some few things.

1. I have to start the car like 4-5times anytime i bought fuel.
2. While test driving it for a whole day before taking it for small body work on the Venda, the car went off like 5times on a motion.
3. I also noticed a white smoke that fade away after few minutes.

Any help with this problem and recommendations of a good Volkswagen technician in Abuja.

Also, please which Engine oil and transmission oil will you recommend. Thank you

Touch the two hose to see if both has the same temperature, the hose that enters the radiator and the one that is for outlet.
If both re of thesame temperature, and your radiator fan still works as per factory settings, then check your coolant thermostat to see if it's not stuck closed or stuck open.

Where can a technician with the scanning device? I am in Lagos. You mean the device will tell if the timing belt is due for change. It is the 2002 - 2004 model.

U don't wait till timing belt start to fail before replacement cos it might not even give you warning before it will snap and cause u more expensive repair .Best bet ,check your owner manual for the recommended mileage that the vehicle must have covered that will necessitate changing the timing belt .
