Engine mount failing?  Is the jetta a rod linkage or cable for the gearshift?

Oh, by the way...  

Here's an e-mail I got from Triple-X Skank through the Canadian Driver e-mail service.  I edited the title of her e-mail to be able to post it, but you get the idea.

I rest my case.  And she can't spell, either.  Big surprise there.

Well Brig, it's just a screen name. My view was that sometimes people are on the spot to think up a name, and that's what came to her. And even if she uses it all the time, however unclassy, no need to jump all over it. I COULD have been no big deal.

But in any case, the eMail response is less than acceptable.

Hope the troubles with your Jetta are solved Babe.

Can we go back to figuring out the problem? I taught that this was the aim of this place! Common!?!

On that note, I agree with Tpl, sounds like an engine mount failing, resulting in misalignment of the engine ang tranny. Needs to be fix NOW if the case, otherwise the tranny is gone.
