1.4 TSI had major issues with timing chains
apparently a subcontractor made the timing chains using faulty tools
and they were prone to breaking
afaik they replaced timing chains on all affected cars
also there was a 1.4 bi-turbo (turbo+charge) that had major issues with engine oil burning
due to faulty oil piston rings
that specific bi-turbo engine variant is no longer in production
@SpykeZ: congrats! Welcome to the VW club
My Polo has been really solid so far - apart from the initial safety recall for the loose handbrake that nearly caused me to wreck the car after one week
Sure will take some pics, IMHO it looks like a regular white A4 though

I like it very much.
Definitely! It's soo simple, I don't get it why other brands don't upgrade their cheaper cars with this. I mean LED are suuuper cheap and the logic to create such animations fits on the simplest boards.
Decided to change my ride after 5 years (Honda Fit) and bit the bullet on a new VW, and one week later:
left the car parked outside the apartment of some girl I was seeing, only to wake up and see it like this. Some drunken fucker just hit and ran
So far I like this one a lot, the engine is quite snappy and very comfortable to drive. My only gripe so far is that the air conditioner is quite weak
shit, sorry about the car
but at least you got laid
Heh, to tell you the thruth, the lass wasn't even worth my trouble but shit happens anyway... Sadly it's stuck on servicing now waiting for some of the replacement parts, and since it broke the parking assist sensors on the bumper VW didn't seem to had a replacement with them (go figure)

Now that I'll return the S4, I have done something I've never done before.. I placed a 1000€ pre-order on a car that I have never seen, nor test-driven. Tell me how much of an idiot I am, please
