    The early 2000's tdis are considered one of the most reliable engines ever to exist here in europe
  • @Banshee365
    I drive a 2006 Jetta TDI with 350k miles. Awesome car.
  • @1geisterfahrer
    I had a 2003 Jetta TDI Wagon. I never had any trouble with the engine. Ran great, got fantastic mileage. But, living in Michigan, the body rotted away from road salt after 17 years and only 150k miles. I finally bought a new car and donated the old girl to my local NPR station. I'm sure someone snapped it up at auction for the engine alone.

    Putting the wrong fluid in the wrong hole can get you into serious child support issues as well. Very expensive.

    My 2010 Touareg tdi never gave me trouble except for an Adblue heater and driveshaft carrier bearing. Fast, efficient, towed a 30ft camper getting 13 mpg. Still one of my favorite cars. Gave it up during the buyback.
  • My 2004 vw jetta 1.9 manual, went 275k . Only had to do 1 piston after some questionable fuel. I got lucky. Most reliable car I ever had. Obviously, clutch and regular maintenance.
  • My dad has a 2003 Volkswagen Passat diesel and he’s been driving that thing for 20 years and loves it.
  • @DPoner
    I am both a Mark six in a Mark 7 TDI. They’re the best cars I’ve ever owned. I removed my DPF and put it downpipe in a tune and now I have over 380 foot pounds of torque in about 215 hp. Still get high 40s MPG. Great commute!

    You guys should do a comedy show. Your humor is definitely not cringe at all.
  • Leak is definitely the rear main seal, common issue with this model Touareg, engine out job to fix. Have a V8 TDi, no hassle since owning
  • @jerrycomo2736
    I fast-forward all commercials except if Wizard does one for "Keeps Hair Loss". That one I'll watch.
  • That's why here in Ukraine most of the people cut out the emissions systems and reprogram ECU to work without them 😁

    I have a 2007 Skoda Octavia 1.9TDi Estate (I'm in England) and it's a absolutely brilliant car and I get excellent fuel milage out off it, my only issue I had was an oil leak caused by a crack in the plastic oil dipstick tube.
  • @Michael-yi4mc
    I’m listening to this while driving and I pulled over in confusion. That siren is loud!
  • @mds2465
    I wouldn’t buy one of those cars if it was the last one on the planet because those cars cost a bloody fortune to maintain. It’s a shame because this car itself is a very beautiful car.
  • @owenoneill5955
    Two English guys just drove from Morroco to London on one tank of diesel. 2006 1.6 TDi VW Passat....73.5 Miles Per US Gallon.
  • @eu6207
    I have a 2012 3.0 Toareg in the EU, it's now at 186 k miles and running great. Never knew it came with ad blue in the US for this version.
