We had 3 jettas: 2 with 185/60/14, and one 16v with 205/50/15. Two cars--a Carat and GTX had close ratio gearboxes...high reving in other words. That's the reason for 4 grand on the road. Dealers would change out the cluster in the transmission quite inexpensively to solve this problem Never did it, but I complained often about the noise level. found it more wearing on me than the car! speedo's on all 3 cars were right on.
good luck,
Dave
