Looking into buying a 2004 jetta 1.8 turbo anything i should know?
Are these cars reliable? What should i look for when buying besides seeing if they will let me check the turbos blades and if it has shaft play in it.
Also how "Expensive" are these to fix and does anything else go wrong with em often? The car im looking at is an 04 with 100,000 miles on it, and they want 6,500 (seems a bit much but i dunno). What do you guys think? |

If the timing belt brakes you'll be looking at about $3000 in repairs.
