Hello all,
I currently own a '10 MK6 GTI 4DR 6spd with Unitronic Stage 2, and I am looking to replace my gti with a used MK6 Golf 4DR TDI 6Spd in a month or two.
I am doing this to save myself lot of $ in the long run with the TDI than the GTI which I will have money left available to pay the school loan payments. I was fairly jealous when I saw that I averaged 35mpg in town with a Golf TDI manual I test drove today while I only averaged 23mpg LIGHTFOOTED in town with the GTI. I know it is big difference by going to Golf TDI from a 340lbs ft of torque GTI. My VW guy at Garnet VW will be looking for a '10 to '12 Golf TDI Manual for me, and I am aware that it will take some time to find one.
Question is: Is it worth it to get a golf tdi with under 60k miles?
Is there anything I should be aware of the TDI like mechanical or anything else? And What should I look for before buying the Golf TDI?
