Guys, am currently looking at a used MK6 Golf GTI. Found a 2011 unit for about RM155k (before negotiation) with full VW service records and warranty until 2016. Are there any specific issues I need to look at? I presume since there are still warranty available any car should be okay so long as it has not been through any accident and price is okay?

Clutch pack and coils can be replaced for free anytime under service at SC if they fail right?

upgrading from e46 325i?

yes both can covered under warranty. coils will cause misfire and is simple to replace, clutch pack is more major, usually DSG7 with the 1.2/1.4 easier to fail

Yeap! Time to move on to another German make. smile.gif Anyway, plan to send the car for a check before placing the deposit with a used car dealer. Is the SC willing to conduct a full check on the car despite me not being the owner yet or I will have to send it to somewhere else? Any recommendations? Does the SC checks the car for any accidents?

2011 unit, is it the SE version with 18", RCD510 etc? mileage?

if the warranty is there... should be no issues...... do check your engine oil once in a while.. not too sure if SC are willing to check at used car dealer
do join us at vwclubmalaysia.net come for TT for guidance and poisons
it is considerably faster than a 325i  brows.gif the power delivery is much more in your face than linear NA.

Not the SE version. Mileage is about 35k km. Quite low. Will defo join the club. Need to learn abit more. Hehe

And yes, the power the seriously straight on. Managed to spin the tires just by coming out of a traffic light. Stark difference compared to my old 6 cylinders. LOL
