nothing significant to report... just had to replace all brakes and had two leaking washer nozzles (both headlight and windshield). I am very lightly modded (Koni Coilovers, HSport front and rear sways, nothing mechanical... I just notice many more people speak up when they have problems and nobody seems to note when they are problem free.
this is my 4th VAG product (1999 Passat 1.8t, 2000 Jetta 2.0, 2002 Passat 1.8t). The first was just over 100,000 when it was taken from me by 2 Ford pickups, the second was traded in on the current... the third was sold about a year ago with 70,000 trouble free miles!
I am currently riding a 2002 Audi B6 A4 Avant Sport Package and hope to run it to 300,000 miles! I bought it certified pre-owned in 2004 and have had STRICT factory recommended maintenance (more actually... i get the oil changed every 5k, not 10k). I always use synthetic (Mobil 1 5w30, but have deviated a couple times to 0w30 and 10w40 if it wasnt available).
Oh, and thank GOD for the great mileage (still getting 26 in town and 32 on the highway) since we are paying a bit more lately.
