Hello all,

Found this forum today searching for HELP with a cracked piston on my 2012 golf - as you can imagine a very unhappy camper. I have loved my golf (first new car I have purchased ever) and feel really sad and disappointed at this known problem popping up. Thinking to hopefully get it fixed at VW's cost (known fault, no one expects a medium to high end car to give up after 95k and full service at dealer) and probably now say goodbye to it, and at this stage, would never purchase a VW again

Open to suggestions on other good small cars with a good size boot - do like a hatch - any comments on the mercedes? Or do I go screw all you expensive high end europeans (lovely as you look) and get a kia or mazda?
