What specifically are these paint, hatch, and synchro issues? I have seen them mentioned a couple times in other threads but no one actually explains them.

1.Like most manufacturers the Paint is eco friendly and tends to easily get marked on the clearcoat with like bird poop and such, but so do most new cars including bmw and others.

2. The hatch issue well in some instances wouldn't open on account of the soft release springs or bad alignment of the latches but this is only on the early 09's they resolved most issue on the 10's.

3. Their have been some snyro issues but again in a very small amount of cars has it lead to a trans failure. Most of the complaints have been thats its a noisy gearbox but again its manual and thats subjective

4. For cooling yes if you take the car on a spirited ride? the oil temp will run on the warm side if the ambient temp is warm of course? but nothing a oil cooler can't fix.

The paint is not that bad as long as you make sure to keep it waxed often.
