so like a month ago i get my 99 passat in amazing condition then the timing belt breaks and fucks up the whole engine. in vw's warrantee it says any engine under 100,000 miles will be replaced. we call vw and because i am the second owner they wont replace my engine so it is 7000 to replace it. on top of that you have to buy a new timing belt and water thing for the new engine when it comes in and it costs 1000 dollars for shiping costs. the 1000 can be sent back to you if vw themslves fix the broken engine that i sent to them. so overall it will cost me 8000 to replace the engine which is how much i payed for the car in the first place

Why would anyone ever buy a VW new....they are so unreliable now on the whole...obviously lots of people have them and they are fine, but on the whole, they are not reliable. If you want a reliable car, get a Japanese car...Hondas, Toyotas, etc.

Japanese cars are the way to go. They'll never let you down.

i was minutes away from buying a sweet VW golf GTI, which ended up getting sold right before i got there...... mother f**kers. anyway, today i brought home a '96 impreza. w00t!

find yourself a local VW shop, instead of dealing with VW-USA. VW's have a big fanbase, there are a lot of little shops out there.
