\'96 Passat TDI Wagon Reliability
There's a 96 Passat TDI Wagon 5-Spd, for sale in my area(Vancouver, Canada)...I have a friend who is seriously considering this vehicle, especially after going for a ride in my TDI....
What sort of differences are there between the '96 TDI and the later model TDI engines, both mechanically and reliability wise?? This car has 120,000 km on it....anything to check before make the purchase?
Also, how is the rest of the car? I think some of you have this same vehicle, what's the general feeling? transmission, interior....things falling apart etc?
Just trying to help him make an informed decision...
Thanks
