Hello,
I am in the market of buying a TDI. I have previously owned a 2000 jetta tdi and loved every minute of it. I now am looking for another one and dont know to much about the mk5 tdi's..
Right now I am looking at an 06 Jetta auto DSG with 370,000 kms on it with some recent maintenance done (Timing belt and water pump, Camshaft, suspension, DSG Flywheel, DSG Fluid change, Alternator, Glowplugs, Brakes, Turbo) With all receipts for work
Is there any reason this car shouldn't go another 150,000-200,000 kms without any major repairs? What is the highest mileage these engines get on average? I know the main issues have been addressed but I don't know if I feel comfortable buying a automatic with this year.
I want to know if I should just go for another mk4 like the 03 manual ALH, or maybe have something a bit newer and nicer looking that will last me a while.
Thanks for reading, any input is appreciated !
