Sweet. Still running well? Or are euro 'soul' starting to creep in?

Tight as the day I picked it up although of course being a diesel it's now running much better.
Apart from maintenance items like filters and oil all I have replaced is a windscreen (rock on the freeway), OS headlight washer jet assy (wallaby tail) and the AC compressor at about 85,000 km. I had a Denso compressor put in and it seems better than the OEM one so far.

Awesome. How much was the denso compressor?

I've had my 1.8tsi for 2190 days. Averaged 62.6km/day for $12,795 of (mainly) 98ron (9109L) = 6.65L/100km. Pretty happy with that.
2 problems in that time. N75 valve & water pump. No rattles or squeaks.

Sorry I can't remember exactly but it was under $1500 installed.

So 6.447L/100km consumption. I notice the reading is 0.6L/h while idling - is that with the aircon engaged? My Golf 90 TSI reads 0.5L/h without the aircon on and 0.7L/h with it on.

Air cond on and 90% of the miles would have been within the boundaries of metro Melbourne. I did 1000km one weekend in February this year and didn't need to fill up till I got home. Averaged 5.2L/100km including going over Mt Hotham.
