I broke out my repair manual. Looks like in A4 chassis cars
(99.5-06 Golf, 99.5-05 Jetta) only the 2.0 liter gasser has a cable, the
other engines use DBW. A '06 Jetta is the newer A5 chassis with different
engines, the engine in your friends Jetta may use a cable or has different
software in the ECU that doesn't include the brake override feature.
