Coming Soon

Volkswagen Jetta Mk7 (BU)

20192026 · BU · sedan

Mk7 Jetta on the MQB platform. Independent rear suspension across the lineup — finally. 1.4T base / 2.0T turbo (GLI). GLI (2019+) shares the GTI's chassis tuning. 2024 facelift refreshed exterior and brought updated infotainment. Manual transmission still offered on GLI in some model years.

Watch out: 1.4T base engine: long-term reliability data is still developing; carbon buildup and PCV valve concerns possible. 2.0T GLI: same EA888 family concerns. Infotainment software bugs in early Mk7 cars.

Full clubhouse — owner Garage Lineage, common problems, year-by-year notes, and product picks — is on the build list.
