wet or dry clutch? should be still under warranty 5 years, for passat always get the dsg 6 wet

yea they discontinue passat range after 2022, 2022 R line is their last for malaysia

in the next few years they might focus on those electric range VW ID4 etc.

depends on type, usage etc. the usual culprit are mechatronic and clutch on the dry clutch version, but those days are long gone in my opinion

clutch is wear and tear, but wearing out before 100k is not something i would say acceptable.

they are many with wet clutches above 200k doing ok - if you are just driving on highway all the time with minimal gearchange, you will rack up your mileage a lot but not much wear at the gearbox. so "low mileage" can have its bad points

there are markets for it for sure, sg halfcut cars, buy halfcut accident cars with many usable items left, and sell it, there are many for sale for golf mk6/5 etc, some new parts are expensive, so why waste used good parts that are still workable.
