Agreed. All the complicated stuff on the mark4 1.8t is just fragile.
It seems like the early, mid 1990s stuff is just more reliable. Then at some point it seems like VW wanted to be more like audi and that other even more expensive one that no one can afford.
Right now I am driving a barrowed 1996 jetta TDi and it goes great. I offered to buy it several times over the years buy our friends don't want to sell it.
