Hesitation to go in first and second gear

Fixed for 35.00.. same thing to my 2007 impala.. locked in park.. can't remove key.. dealer wanted more that 500.00 to repair when part is 35.00.. the wire in gear shift breaks.. second time for me with only 30.000 miles.. the part can be ordered or get at dealer..

Video shows how its fix..worked great now

How long have you owned it? Is it possible there is a shift kit installed for towing? Was there something that was done just before it started doing this? A tune up perhaps?

Check the fuel filter to see if the fuel filter is restricted,then have the fuel pressure checked to make sure it is enough.If there is a code in the computer then there will be a check engine light on,have the codes read,this will help diagnose the problem.

Have your checked your trans fluid?

My friend it sounds very familiar to a TPS (throtle position sensor). Locate it by the throttle lever on the intake box.Place an ohmmeter on little brute while unplugged set the meter to 100 ohms and manually activate the throttle lever.Should read at 0 closed and 8 to 14 open . If not install a T P S unit.Cheap and readily available at most auto parts stores

fuel filter

O-2 sensor what is the cause of that, it is the one on the side of the throttle body in your book on the car it will also say Oxygen sensor, change it out it will be fine, The Jetta is a great car take car of her
