Computer thinking sound

Volkswagen Jetta 2015 automatic 115000 miles
My car makes a click-click sound when accelerating around 12mph, and when stopping around 8mph (stopping with brakes or by just letting car coast to a stop on its own. The sound seems to be coming from under the dashboard, towards the odb plug.

My car has been making this sound for some time, but it seems to be more often after replacing my battery after it died.

Horn not working

Volkswagen Jetta 2014 Automatic, 4 door Jetta  131000 miles
I have googled it and pulled up that when you hit the horn, you can hear the clicking noise. I can hear it underneath the fuels box area under the steering wheel, but I went and purchased a relay and I don’t know if I put it in the wrong place or what I also checked the fuses And still not working

Starter motors

Volkswagen Jetta 2009 Manual 60000 miles
Ok, it is our daughters VW Jetta 2009 77TDI. She first took it to a vw service centre (Australia) had a power loss and a clinking noise (not engaging) but does start. They put it on their system and came up with zero, then they update the computer and re did and it said, injectors. But zero for the starting. She brought injector cleaner and that fixed it, but still the same on starting. She had already replaced the battery (which turns out is the wrong battery 500 cca) She decided to sell the car, but a mechanic told her she need a new starter motor (this was during the road worthy inspection)… Read complete

We got a call back from VW, their response was they couldn't comment as non genuine part was used. We did get in contact with a German car specialist and he said, if the larger starter motor has been in now for a few months he can not see any issues with the electronics as it would of happened by now. Also he advised in getting a new key as it can cause start up noise...

No Crank, No Start. Been troubleshooting the starter, starter relay.

Volkswagen Jetta 2007 4dr 2.5 SE 140000 miles
Car has good battery, 12.6 vdc with car off. When turning the key to the start position I hear what sounds like a single relay in the dash click. Sounds like its coming from the relay panel left of steering wheel. The 2007 jetta 2.5 SE is my wifes car & has seen better days. She drove the grandkids to school in the morning a week ago & went to leave a few hours later & no start. I've forgotten how to troubleshoot. Its been awhile. Update. I'm not getting power at the starter

AC issues goes on and off looking for relay

Volkswagen Jetta 2013 jetta tdi 2.0l MK6 172000 miles
Hello, I’m having trouble locating the AC relay in my 2013 Jetta TDI. Volkswagen doesn’t provide clear diagrams for the fuses and relays, which makes this difficult. I’ve replaced the AC compressor several times, including the latest one, which is working well. However, the compressor cycles on and off, similar to previous ones. Additionally, I’ve noticed unusual smells and ticking noises coming from under the dashboard, suggesting that one or more relays might be failing. The cooling fans work fine but don’t activate when the AC is turned on. When the compressor does run, it operates norma… Read complete

Very difficult to start.

Volkswagen Jetta 2000 4 door 194000 miles
I try about 10 times until it barely catches and it sounds like it's on one cylinder until it kicks in and then it idles fine. It runs very smoothly and does not stall. When I try again after I park, the same thing; I need to crank it about 6 or 8 times before it barely starts and again, it sound like a lack of fuel. It runs fine after it starts.

No boost on turbo

Volkswagen Jetta 2008  190000 miles
When I accelerate it takes a while for the car to take off , about 2200 revs when the speed increases. I have a straight though exhaust and the “boo” noise from the turbo is very little to none. Perhaps the turbo needs to be adjusted???
