After almost 2 years with our MkVI tdi golf wagon, my wife is basically ready to throw in the towel.
She wants reliable, and we obviously don't do enough open road driving for the tdi with a DPF to clear itself. The regens are getting more common, and the way it drives through them is awful, stalling, lurching - less than ideal.
As it stands she won't accept a less than legal fix (dpf delete). So unless there is a practicable solution elsewhere I can see we are going to have to move beyond the tdi and presumably get the tsi version.
I think I know the answer, but is there a ready fix for the tdi beyond the delete?
And is the there anything wrong with moving to the 118tsi? And will they last?
We actually want a car to last for 10 years, it's what we've done in the past & hope at least to do in future - i.e we don't feel the need to change up. We just want a good reliable car for years to come.
