What you paid isn’t even bad man! Good purchase
I think so too I mean I’ve seen better deals but imo this was the cleanest one around
Very true this is the perfect time to buy
Really is ! You can get them for a steal
Might pick up a 2015 Golf myself. They're so nice
Absolutely I kind of wish I bought the mk7 not gonna lie lol
You actually didn’t seem to pay too much car looks pretty clean
I think I got a good deal due to the fact everything on the car was pretty immaculate
The sportwagen is my favorite TDI they offer!
Thank you! I love it
Nice video man!
Thank you I appreciate it !
You really bought at a great time (pre-covid). You seemed to have had a tiny bit of apprehension over what you paid, but with hindsight, you got a great deal. About to pull the trigger on a TDI and deals like what you got aren't around. Thanks for all your TDI videos...helped push me over the fence.
Great content!
Price/Milage/year yeah yeah but mostly this should reflect on it being a Sportwagon with a 6 speed manual transmission.
Fantastic Daily not doubt. Glad I found a wagon in manual also
Absolutely a great daily driver!
I couldn’t agree more
Have you calculated how much you're averaging in the winter time?
I haven’t But I have gotten over 500 miles every tank still but haven’t hand calculated
Got a 2014 tdi Jetta love the thing, bought it 3 years ago for 9500 with under than 45k on it
Nice videos, Just curious how do you and others viewing the video figure out your fuel mileage? Do you go off of what the car tells or do you figure it out by hand; ie divide the number of miles driven by the amount of fuel used?
Best I have been able to get on my 2014 TDI Sportwagen has been 40.5 mpg hand calculated. 85% highway driving at a steady state of 75 mph.
Been watching all ur uploads, thank u for them. Im bout to buy 14' sportwagen tdi, 63k miles for just over $13k tag,title n shit included. Firstly, that a good deal? Secondly, I wanna upgrade the sound system, I dont listen to much rap n hip hop but really appreciate good bass, any suggestions? More importantly how often shouldi be taking this thing in for work to keep it as healthy as possible?
Dude, you got a steal, especially out the door! I don’t think you could get much more than 600 miles on a single tank though, even with dedicated highway driving. My longest tank has been 593 miles, which was mixed highway and city.
I feel I got a good deal def! I’ve seen better ones recently haha but for what I needed and the condition of the car I can’t complain..and I have gotten over 600 no joke not all the time but I have..I do mostly highway driving though due to work and stuff with some city mixed in here and there. That was before the roof box and all that other stuff causing like aerodynamics butrecently no my mileage has gone down I’ve been having a small egr issue which has killed my fuel mileage my past couple of tanks have been about 520ish
593 is great though! These cars are very hit and miss it seems I see people even stating online they can barely get 400 out of a tank and I’ve never had that issue personally.. the mk6 tdis seem to be a bit temperamental with some people luckily I guess maybe I got a good one? Not sure haha
DArias_ Have you had any issues with your glow plug light flashing? How about the sunroof leaking? That is a pretty commonly reported issue, although I have not experience it yet (knock on wood!)
@@DArias I seem to be one of those people who can barely get over 400 miles per tank. Granted I drive quite a bit of city, but it's mostly long back roads with barely any stops and some highway mixed in. Do you know if a dealership would cover this under warranty? No check engine lights or anything and seems to run good.
Great video! I found a ‘15 TDI manual in mint condition. SEL trim package and 24k miles. It was “fixed” in late 2018, and the service records are perfect too. They are asking 14k. Too much?
$14k sounds about right tbh it’s a fully loaded model with only 24k miles. Seems fair to me! You probably have a little wiggle room to bring the price down a bit
I have 2013 Jetta TDI with 112K miles, kinda worried that the extended warranty is expiring at 120K...the HPFS and I do get some ice in the inner cooler system (some cold stutter starts but not all the time). Time to think...any one else with experiences with 13 models longer than 120K miles?
WARNING.....HIGH PRESSURE FUEL PUMP HPFP issue........When it goes which can be randomly......9000 repair at the dealer. Do the cp3 mod it will stop the issue.
What is cp3 mod?
100th like here! oh yeah!
I have a 206 Jetta Tdi 405,000 miles
I got the same exact car except 2014 you plan on making any maintenance Videos on the car??
I will be yes hopefully soon when my maintenance is due which is within the next 100 miles. Probably be doing a fuel filter, oil change etc that I can cover
DArias_ awesome bro! I look forward to that! Keep doing your thing
Thank you for the kind words man I appreciate that!👍🏽💪🏽
How has the clutch been holding up with the tune ?
Clutch has been great tbh granted I don’t really beat on the car too much to let the clutch wear on too fast but still haha
is it ok to use a 1.9 tdi as a daily driver ? city driving + almost weekly 600km long trips ?
The ALH engine is amazing and considered by many to be the best TDI engine ever offered. Many people have posted videos of them getting 800+ miles on a tank so I feel if that’s the route you choose it’s a great one haha.. they’re fuel efficient and literally last forever multiple people on the TDI forums on Facebook have driven them 300k plus miles and still running strong no issues
You forgot my TDI Passat 😆
Passat was my second option! I love them haha
What about the Passat
Passat was actually my second choice if I couldn’t find an appealing wagon for myself haha I LOVE the Passat they’re amazing looks good and are super comfortable
the intro gave me both hiv and covid19
Unfortunate, rip man 👏🏽
@@DArias jk bro, i was being edgy! nice video btw and nice car
If you ever got a tune , diesel gate is void ?
Usually yes ! BUT there are loopholes at times in the system.. there are some mod friendly dealers that will hook you up as long as none of the emissions components have been removed such as dpf and egr.. other dealers will flag you for being tuned. Also there is the playing dumb factor where back in the past for example I had a gti and blew it up took it in for warranty work all stock except a tune and they saw the tune and I played dumb acting like I bought the car that way lol.. it really depends on your service advisor the dealer you go to etc.. luckily in my case I have my methods of getting things fixed in case of something catastrophic happening
@@DArias I could not seem to regenerate the dpf on my own by driving it. Its an audi wagon with 68,000 miles. It was aready fixed from the diesel gate. But way way way under the warranty limit for that repair. Then my dpf light came on. It did have a tune but I only put very minimal miles on the car after that tune. If its still covered under warranty I would shit that it wont be fixed cause that tune. Which i removed
@@DArias at the dealership they did a regeneration at charged me 80 dollars but it was like 160 normally. She said I did not have warranty. Was it flagged ?
It is possible that they flagged the car which is what it sounded like. Personally I would have asked why the car was flagged if everything else was stock besides the time.. also a lot of times when the car won’t regenerate you can force a regen yourself go on a spirited time on the highway usually in 4th gear to get the EGTs super hot to force a regen on the dpf to clear out all the soot. Dealers are annoyed at the fact that so many people are having this issue and the dpf parts are on back order. There’s even been rumors that Volkswagen May do a second round of buy backs and just give up on the tdis overall
Spirited drive*
Strate pipe it lol it would run so much better
You’re so right I’m very tempted but I’m always ehh because of the warranty lol it’s a tough decision
@@DArias if you get a stage one tune and your dpf light comes on you are very screwed because there goes your diesel gate warranty correct ? And a new dpf is like what 10,000$
You’re right with this but also I do have personal ways of being able to get past this. But if I really got screwed I would just delete at that point
Only reliable if you delete it.
I agree to disagree haha ive had luck 114k miles now and 0 issues really not even a cel but I know not everyone gets that lucky
Lot of talk for such little information.
Holy crap. My ears are bleeding from intro. Edit it down brother.
How was your panoramic roof? Any leaks?
2 and a half years and no leaks at all
@@DArias Thanks bro
