satisfied, have had problems, replaced maf and coolant temp sensor but thats part and parcel of running a car
-
55mpg, approx 170bhp and 300lbs ft torque from a remap - whats not to like :grin: :grin:
-
other than the usual MK4 faults (glove box, temp sensor) I wouldn't change my TDI for anything else.

-

Well after a month of tdi 150 ownership i'm happy, shes abit clunky on cold tickover though :huh:
but other than that running black bbs rc's she's handling better than ever! :nerd:
-
130 TDI - 185bhp/300lbft/45-55mpg :evil:
What's not to like! Other than the fact that I just keep wanting to spend more and more money on it! (FMIC, Sachs Clutch, Bigger Brakes...) :rolleyes:
Even sounds great with the largebore down pipe, de-cat & DSG intake (well for a diesel anyway...).
Only faults have been a broken armrest clip and the clutch which has started to slip every now and again but that's hardly the cars fault when its got around 300lbft to try and control!
-
mine is doin ok. its clocked up 124,000 miles and only probs ive had is a leak frm the drain pipe from the sunroof on the offside and thats it :smiley:

Well, I've owned by oil burner for about 8-9 months now and I have to say it's the best car I've ever owned.
I was absolutely gutted when I lost my beloved Focus, but as they say, every cloud has a silver lining :smiley:
I average about 45-50mpg, have gone to Scotland and back on a full tank of fuel and just can't get enough of the turbo diesel tourque :evil:
Overall 9/10 - only bad point - expensive to service!

in what way?? oil, filter, air filter and fuel filter is approx £60-£70 and about an hour of your own time
or are you putting it into a garage for servicing??

I put it into an Audi garage mate. I have a mate that works there who gives me a sh*t load of discount :smug: I was just saying that on the whole when compared to other cars, it's generally more expensive to keep it on the road.

depends on the mileage you do i guess - i service mine every 10K and either do it myself or one of my mates gives me a hand
general wear and tear items can be expensive - window clips etc but in the main i've found it cheaper to keep on the road than my old MK2 Golf - at least with this car the money i spend i CHOOSE to spend rather than begrudge paying it :laugh:
