Luckily, for the most part, if those things failed, they failed once and a fix was remedied. ECSL was recalled, and CSC either had an aftermarket alternative or workaround (Z1). Those were really the only two major problems with the Z. No one had an answer for my why Jetta ate four MAFs in 60k miles. No one had an answer for why the guts of an ink pen served as a better trunk release mechanism than the factory junk (seriously... the replacement I rigged up lasted until I traded the car... around 50k miles or so from the time it broke). No one had an answer for why my clutch plate broke and shot through the transmission while my car was in cruise control on the interstate. I had a bit of PTSD with that car I think... |

I feel the GTi is way overrated as a performance car. It's more like an extra fun commuter. The understeer is ridonculous and under aggressive cornering it pulls away from you... |
RicerX - yah one of the main reasons why I hadn't considered a vw was reliability. It's euro basically a hit or miss.
I suppose the Mexican vw is trying harder to make a name for itself. My GTI quality is excellent and I don't foresee keeping dis car longer than 5-6 yrs 50k mostly highway miles tops. Hope it lasts |
