this is crazy that you recently uploaded this. Im buying a 2013 late year GLI next week with 52k miles. it looks and drives clean, i hope i dont have the same issues as you. car was well treated
Look at service records and and inspect the motor, 52k miles is very low for that year so nothing major should be a concern. I had a early 2013 GLI with 100k miles and it had nothing but repairs and had to sell it :/ but late 2013 models also had the updated more reliable engine..
@@SSR-vz8zx no I bought it at a used dealer and it ran fine the engine was running strong for months until the service light came on and it just started breaking down
consider a vinyl wrap. it will hold up to brushless as long as it's applied properly and in a matte or satin finish, and shouldn't cost as much as paint
Looking to buy a jetta gli late 2013 model. Im from the UK I'm guessing it's a American import. Such a nice car never seen before I imagine really rare in Europe. Was wondering what sort of mpg you can get from stock vehicle
would you recommend to stay away from early 2013 EA888 engines? I am looking at a GLI like this but with 90k miles going for $12,800 I would ask for 11k flat though.. if he has servicing records of everything I would think it would not be a bad deal.
@@CryptoGuyoti thanks for the reply, I got a 2016 GLI and thankfully it's in amazing condition with up to date servicing. 74k miles for $15k if anyone is curious
You got the car for free?? OMG!! I am considering buying one 2013 with 88k miles on it manual. Any suggestions or thoughts? I currently have a 2011 sentra spec-v Or should i just go with the jetta trendline?
I hope you didn't buy it. It's a money pit and makes no power. Interior rattles and you constantly get misfires from dirty valves and carbon buildup. I had a manual transmission and that was junk. A GTI is a better choice or for the same money get a Ford Fusion 2.0 Ecoboost
Thats mostly bmw and mercades. Volkswagen have been pretty reliable for the most part. Plus it falls under the category of people not knowing how to take care of their cars so there in lies one of the reason why euro cars have that stigma that their endless money pits but any car can be an endless money pit. Its just mostly euro cars cause their usually over engineered and people forget to take care of certain things so there inlies the issue of reliability. Dont get me wrong there are certain euro cars made that wont last (i.e bmw 4 cylinder turbo engines) but there are some that will especially if u put in the work to baby the hell out ur car

@@jnow10 did you buy from someone and you realized the repairs needed or you had it for that long?
@@SSR-vz8zx no I bought it at a used dealer and it ran fine the engine was running strong for months until the service light came on and it just started breaking down
@@jnow10 that's nerve racking. I'm looking into one, same year but with 92k miles
I love my 2012 frost autobahn gli. But this car is def expensive. Definitely worth it though.

Ur funny my guy great and honest review!
TCU tune will solve all those weird issues with the DSG

The only time I ever take my car though the auto wash is if it's touchless
I think that GLI is a 2014, because in 2014 they added led taillights and changed the engine cover
@@CryptoGuyoti oh ok, that makes sense.. I didn’t know they changed it midway through 2013
what do you think of the 2012 VW Jetta GLI are they reliable if we’ll taken care of
@@CryptoGuyoti how would you check something like that

@@emilbobev8381 wtf. this is exactly what’s wrong with my vw gli
German cars drive like a dream but are also an endless money pit.
