VW is doing promo as followed
am looking for a family car/suv in the range of 120k, would any current jetta owners share their experience so far?
my priority is on car safety and realiablity; next is nvh.

Not sure about reliability especially with the dry clutch gearbox.
But safety and nvh is definitely best in class. Power too. |

Hmm...VW is being notorious of the poor reliability of the cars previously. I can't comment much as i do not own any VW before, just wait some VW owners to give u their opinions.

VW cars from 2015 onwards are quite reliable. Most of the notorious DSG gearbox issues have been solved.

QUOTE(tom_tombak @ Oct 3 2017, 01:33 PM) Think that u have mistaken about dry vs wet clutch. All high end vw using wet clutch especially 2.0 passat, gti and few. Rest base vw model using 7 gear dry clutch, as passat 1.8, jetta, polo etc. Doesn’t matter, both have to change mechatronic, clutch after certain time/ mileage due to wear and tear. Sometimes it happen before certain mileage due to driving patterns. |
