Title: GTi
Post by: rickyhill1988 on 20 May 2013, 12:33

Hi Guys

I'm looking to replace my current 2003 Golf SE for a 2005 GTi and I've found some cheap but good examples on these websites:

http://www.desperateseller.co.uk/cheap-cars/volkswagen/golf (http://www.desperateseller.co.uk/cheap-cars/volkswagen/golf)
http://www.vcars.co.uk/used-cars/used-volkswagen-golf_gti.php (http://www.vcars.co.uk/used-cars/used-volkswagen-golf_gti.php)

However, I've heard stories about the 2005 edition where the car exhibits signs of premature clutch failure and that the dmf clutch will often need replacing on average miles for this age of car.

Has anyone experienced this? Any help would be appreciated

Regards

Ricky
