Asked by Kyle Jun 23, 2014 at 07:25 PM about the 2001 Volkswagen Jetta GLS

Question type: Maintenance & Repair

1 Answer

Speed sensor/crankshaft positioning sensor. They are one in the same. This is a cheap part and easy fix. Thought tough to get to it can all be done without taking the car apart. Look for a how to. There are many. Wife has an 02 jetta GLS 1.8t. Had the same issue. Please head me when I say this is THE option. I spent a lot of money listening to others to fix the inexpensive very DIY issue.
