I have never heard reports of the local guys' works failing in the same manner/timeframe as the factory installation. They use different glues. Go with the local guys if your headliner drops as opposed to paying more for the OEM part that will fail again.

The last tyre service(align and balance ) was one May and its 32829km.
When should I schedule the next service?
And how to check if I need to go before the time? The service guy told me it was pulling to the left. I didn't even notice it. Maybe there is a better indication?Thanks in advance.
Oh yea, I drive through some bad roads on a daily basis even though 75 percent is smooth and highway roads.

Someone in work is selling their 2012 Jetta and they said the following lights are on "ABS, Steering Angle and Stability dash indicators"
Your thoughts on the cost to fix/replace those possible sensors or issues?

Did they change the battery recently?

It is a company car and yes they said they changed the battery recently.

Sometimes you have to do a <a class="vglnk" target="_blank" href="http://www.ebay.com/sch/i.html?_nkw=steering" rel="nofollow"><span>steering</span></a> angle sensor reset
Turn the steering wheel fully left, then fully right, and drive for a short distance at 15-20 km/h.
This had happened to me and the above didn't work. Took it to the dealer and they thought the steering rack was bad... so they replaced it and the fault still didn't go away. They put the old rack back in and contacted VW Germany. On their recommendation, the car's software was updated... and everything was back to normal.

This would be the second time in 2 years, applying for goodwill again. Hopefully my immaculate service record will come through for me.
5 years of ownership
2 engine rebuilds
1 mechatronic failure
2 door lock actuator replacements
1 hood liner replacement
At this stage I not even vex, car just unreliable.

I’m surprised at two engine rebuilds. Same cylinder as the last time ?

Not sure, they only said it failed the compression test. Same rebuild as the last time.
