Hi,

I just got my new Passat 2014 two days ago. It's too soon for me to judge... Will keep you guys posted if there's any problem... Cheers!

By the way, if there's any 2014 VW owner that clocked 20k mileage above can share their experience perhaps?

My 3 weeks old jetta seem ok. No problem on dsg so far. Mileage 1600 already.

Still too early to tell. My 20 months & 30K Jetta ~ Piston & Cylinder cracked!

Manufacture year?

Volkswagen still struggling in US due to poor quality issues and defects...

2012.

Sure boh?? Most engines can last very long time....still under warranty??

This is very common problem for the 1.4 TSi engine!

I Thought latest model they change to high grade piston?

Btw, dont aspect much. Cc only 1.4.. dont stress your engine too much on high speed..

I guess this is what happens when you play with Turbo...

Save a little bit of money on roadtax, but engine koyak...i still prefer higher CC NA and pay my road tax....

Dont worry.. warranty 5 years if u follow the service interval. 2 years vw and 3 years insurance..

why u buy when u know got some issue which defect rate quite high?

After test drive, fall in love with the power of the engine, handling, quiet cabin, many features.. easily go 200kmh.

that 3 years insurance already give you headache when you wanna claim warranty...


btw, saw one white Passat broke down during the Raya exodus jam from Tg Malim to Tapah last Saturday...

I saw new CRV on towing yesterday from tg.malim to kl.. so?

My cousin working in honda. He say 2 new accord come back to claim warranty because of water come inside when raining.. rear seat all will flood with water..

My point is, all car hs problem..

I agree with you... All car has problem. I just sold off my Mazda 3 2.0, year 2011. The car has a lot of problem as well, I replaced steering rack, front absorber, engine mounting 2 kali (1.5 year sekali), rear view mirror, headlamp due to water leakage... And so many thing I might not remember...

But one thing need to highlight, Mazda after sales service is not bad... Hope VW can improve on this...

Yup the only problem with the vw customer care and also after sale service. i think perodua is better.. haha. But i see they trying to improve. .

your topic = DSG, my reply = Passat...

how does that relate to CRV...?

and yes, all cars have problems... but like I implied, Passat becoz this thread is about DSG problem...

so I ask you again, how does that relate to CRV...?

If you get butthurt becoz I mentioned Passat, then don't bother reply at all...

Haha. Peace. Forgot this thread about dsg problem.. btw, not all vw breakdown due to dsg.. if electronic failure sometime only a small matter also will breakdown the car.. not recommended to drive and better to bring to nearest Service centre..
