other than the usual MK4 faults (glove box, temp sensor) I wouldn't change my TDI for anything else.

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!
