I have been driving it for about 3 weeks now. My previous car was a passat that I ran over 200,000. I absolutely fell in love with the car at first sight, I drove over 300 miles to buy it. It is great, 9 years old, but looks like new. It drives great, but there are a few (minor) issues. Thank you to anyone reading this. If you can offer any advice it is appreciated. The issues/ questions are:


-I'm in NW Houston, any trustworthy mechanic shops?
-I started the car (cold start), drove to a gas station about 5 minutes away, after filling with gas the car wouldn't start, after some "sweet talking" and punching the gas, it started (this happened twice).
-I will change out air, cabin, and fuel filter. Any recommended place to buy OEM?
-The DVD for the nav is not working, I believe it is the drive itself, plan on cleaning it, anyone come across this?

Other than that, I am enjoying it and plan on enjoying it for a while.

Thanks for your time.
