Need advice re: potential vehicle purchase
Hi all,
I am a college student and car enthusiast, looking to invest in a reliable, relatively gas-efficient vehicle. Would love it to be a VW Golf, but I have heard and read of the problems that these cars are sometimes plagued by. Looking for general information about these issues, as well as what to look for/as about when viewing potential cars. Currently considering a 2000 VW Golf...what do you know about this year? Any info would be great.

Thanks for the welcome and the information! Do you have any similar information related to the gas models? I currently own a TDI, but need to invest in a gas model. Also, I know that in the diesel vw's, replacement of the timing belt is not a sufficient enough repair and there are several other components that must also be replaced to sustain the integrity of the engine. Is this the case for gas models as well? Or does a simple replacement of the timing belt suffice?

Sorry I don't have any info on VW gas models you would have to those. It will depend on the age of the TDI when you needed to change the timing belt generally around 80k miles and a new tenssioner at 160k miles this is something you don't want to miss. The gas engines are longer depending on the year and model 120k miles for belt change.

Well, a mileage and performance of the car truly depends upon the type of fuel which is used in it. This is also a fact that gas gives better mileage. Regarding the durability of Golf, I would rather like to say that this car is one of the best performers of the VW group and has great reviews as the performance of the car is great.

We’ll start with testing the transmission and driveline. Once the engine has settled down to an idle, shift the vehicle to reverse, the shift should be smooth, without any clunking or jerking. There may be some movement as the vehicle loads the braking system
