My jetta wont start all the time when I have been driving it and it is hot outside. The ignition wont even try to fire. I will let it sit for twenty to thirty minutes and then it will start right up. What do I need to replace to get this fixed?

When you say the ignition won't work, and it won't even try I assume you are talking about the ignition switch, which controls the starter. It sounds like a classic battery terminal corrosion problem. Go to this page for further information.
