Question 2
whats a better car a 2000 vw jetta or a 2000 vw passat?...  

Answers
1)   All things being equal, mileage, maintenance, and accident history, a 2000 Passat will be a slightly better vehicle, if you're buying a used one. Judging by how many are still on the road, Jetta. - Spanish Inquisition

2)   they have the same motor options, the passat is bigger so safer, jetta has better handling. they are for the most part the same thing - Volkswagen

3)   To me, its not a contest: the Jetta by a country mile. Although the Jetta has had its share of concerns, they pale in comparison to that of the Passat. The Jetta is base form with the 2.0 liter NON turbo 4 cylinder is by far more reliable than a Passat. The Passat is larger, requires premium fuel, gets less economy, uses 504.00 spec oil (synthenic oil only) and has far more issues than the Jetta.

The largest issue is that the Passat steering and suspension are weak and expensive to repair; known problems are the upper links which will need replacement usually between 70 to 100K miles, tie rod ends that wear and even some ball joint wear issues. Tire wear has also been a concern due to the suspension and steering issues. Also the repair costs for timing belt replacements, clutch costs and the heater core issues are very expensive. Although not as large an issue, front brake pad and rotor wear have also been reported as concerns.

It is true that the Golf and Jetta from this generation aren't the most reliable of vehicles; yet, from my experience in the dealership service department, the Passat has more expensive issues than the Jetta/Golf. Most of the issues dealing with the Golf/Jetta have been corrected by service bullentins and/or recalls. Items like the window regulators, transmission shift issues and the like have handled by this time; the Passat issues are either milage or age related, though like the Jetta and Golf, the automatic transmission is a weak point.

The basic Jetta/Golf with the base engine, manual window regulators, standard engine and transmission has been far more reliable than any other VW models during this time period, save the Cabrio. It runs on regular gas, gets the best milage, no sunroof leaks (base models don't have a factory sunroof option) uses regular engine oil and costs the least to drive and insure. Avoid if possible, just on principal alone, the automatic transmission; its known weak point in any VW from this time period. VW automatics from 2005 up (depending upon model) have been far more reliable and can be considered to be a good choice now....

If you don't need the interior room or space for 5 people, then the Jettta makes great sense, especially in town driving. The smaller size lends its self well to parking in smaller spaces, while the handling is far better than the Passat.

Hope this helps, a car nut. - a car nut

4)   I wouldn't touch a passat with a 10 foot pole. Maybe you should get more options for your car. Just saying...10 year old VW can be death to your wallet. - Hank Scorpio

5)   You also should compare car insurance quotes for cars before buying one, for example here - carquotes.sinfree.net - Antony

Question 3
Is a 2 door volkswagon Rabbit considered a sports car?...  

Answers
1)   no its not at all - jordanedgeley

2)   It can be called many things but sports car ain't one of them. - bob

3)   A hot hatch it is, but a sports car it isn't...at least not to the Insurance Institute here in the USA.

Variants of this car appeal to Sports Car drivers though: The R32 & GTI can really mess up the sports car scene with their oft times superior handling and performance.

If your reason for asking relates to cost of insurance, go to any of the better insurance companies web sites and enter/compare this car to others. You'll find that based on trim level and the engine in it, there may be higher rates for this car. - Steve in Seattle

4)   it is a economy car unless a gti its not a hot hatch - Volkswagen

5)   I say it's all about the attitude. A new Rabbit? Sorry, No. But I will always think of my first car (an 84' GTi) as an-almost-sports-car. Mostly because I drove it like it was one. I think I spent as much time on two wheels as I did on four! LOL!
*a two door Rabbit is a subcompact. - Rob

Question 4
how i can reset light service vw 6 2.0 tdi?...  

Answers
1)   Whoever services the car can put out the light, otherwise take it to VW but they will charge a fair bit or you could find a diagnostician in the phone book and he would put it out with a machine (cheaper than VW). - Lynda Lou

2)   Sorry, which exact model & age of VW? - J G

3)   the first thing to do is check all the fluids. like oil level, transmission fluid level,coolant level and also check the air filter and spark plugs. you can also try disconnecting the negative side of Battery for about 10 minutes min. then reconnect. or you can take it to a shop & have them plug in a obd2 scanner to check problem and/or reset the ECU... - ajz54

4)   That information should be in your vehicle handbook. Generally you press the trip re-set button and hold it for a number of seconds switch on the ignition and it re-sets. You do need to look specifically for your model of car as I do not recognise it from the details you give. - L G
