Considering 130tdi

[Kenju]

Hi, i am considering upgrading from my 2010 jetta 125 tdi to the passat 130tdi highline. Have people had a trouble free experience? Anything to look out for when purchasing? My jetta has been amazing and bulletproof.. hoping for the same. Any advice or feedback most welcome.

someone just reviewed a passat alltrack... go read that review, much of it will apply: 2016 Passat Alltrack Review

The 130TDI and 140TDI Alltracks are different beasts. The 140 is a completely new model (B8 chassis). The 130 is the B7 chassis.

I have previously owned a 125TDI Highline Wagon with Sports Pack / DAP and then got a 130TDI Highline Sedan with Sports Pack / DAP. Both were excellent cars! The 130TDI had a good jump in torque to 380Nm and that made it drive much better!
There was a 130TDI Special Edition that also gained Bi-Xenon Headlights if you are looking on Carsales...

Either way you can go wrong!

Love my 130TDI. 60,000km and no dramas so far.

Thanks for responses. Sounds like i should expect hassle free motoring.

70,000km, only hassle was getting a leaking "rear windscreen wiper pipe" that I managed to get fixed under warranty (even though it was 6 months past it). AllTrack 130TDI
