Octavia or Jetta?

[woofy]

I must have missed them. He reckoned the new engine in the current RS, GTi and it stablemates is so bad that they are expecting new versions to appear in this years models with new rings/pistons. Also that they are fully booked up for engine rebuilds for 6mths (Audi dealer in syd). I haven't seen anything that obvious around.

Do these issues extend to the 1.8L? I'd all but decided to go with a petrol Yeti, but if the diesel is more reliable........
Seriously, buying a new car is doing my head in.

The 1.8T in the Yeti has been around for ages, I'd have thought any reliability issues it had would have been eradicated but possibly not.

I have a 2007 build 1.8TSI M6. Uses 200ml of oil in 15,000km. Has averaged 6.8L/100km over the last 93,000km. It's had a Bluefin remap since2009. It's a wonderful, smooth, torquey little engine. Love it. Would buy again.

Run it in properly & use 98ron & you'll get more than the advertised 118kw.
