Volkswagen

Why is my 1998 VW Jetta hard to start in cold weather?
I had the Mass Air Flow Sensor replaced; car runs great once it starts and gets warm, but it cranks forever before starting in cold weather, and runs rough for a few seconds, then it's fine. It has 2.0 liter, 4 cyl, manual trans. No dummy lights are on. Mechanic says it may be the throttle body or distributor.

Here are some related answers from recent posts:
Automatic Choke may not be working properly, mass air flow sensor might be defective. Are there any dummy lights on?

I had this problem on my '98. Hairline crack in the voltage regulator had the car stall / hard to start / no start often in the winter. Later in spring the car would die in the rain. I sprayed various ignition parts with water (coil, wires, etc) and the car died when I got the voltage regulator wet. It revived after sitting 10-20 minutes and drying. I replaced the regulator and have had no troubles since. The regulator is at the top of the dash near the wiper.

The windscreen wiper on my car are operating themselves without being switched on and won't turn off. It's happening sporadically but is really annoying and I'm worried about damage to the windscreen and wiper motors. Any ideas / similar experiences please? (discounting any ideas of it being possessed or having a gremlin on board)

Does anyone know have any suggestions on how to trouble shoot this problem? Or should i take it to the machanic and spend a whole lot of money?

I bought this car used with 21000 miles on it. And the dealer had given it new breaks, tires, etc. But my manual says the care should be serviced at 40000 miles which it has now. Should I be bringing it to the VW dealer for authorized (expensive) service? Or ride it out? Or ask the advice of my regular mechanic?
