2.0 GT TDI 2009 with 89,000 miles

The main issue is my air-con pump has failed (still need to get this sorted  :cry:) apart from that the ususal white worm on the vancouvers but suppose that is to be expected.

59 plate GTi - 78000 Miles. Just had a major service (80K Service) last week and DSG oil change. Runs like a dream. Do on average about 300 miles a week and just had a run upto Scotland over Easter

Serviced every 10,000 miles, with Full VW History.

Would have saved money doing for a diesel, but GTI is just special.

Have you ever had any major problems with your GTI?

And do you intend to keep it post 100k miles?

No issues at all mate and will keep it for the next 2 years at least, by which time it should be coming close to 100K. If still going strong thn will probably give it to the mrs for her school runs or something and get rid of her 1.6 MK5. The only thing that annoys me about my GTI are the stone chips on the bonnet from all the motorway miles and having the original Monza 17's. I have read alot about people having issues with their GTI's but touch wood mine has been epic since I have had it.

59 Plate 56k for me, Revised tensioner fitted at about 48k to be on the safe side,
Still loving it and still makes me smile every time, only normally keep a car a couple of years before I get bored, but this is a keeper, only thing that interests me at the mo is the R400, but will they build it ??

Off topic but is that common on the Mk6 too then? My old Mk5 just had the same problem at 96k miles.
