7DREW Posted August 23, 2023 Share Posted August 23, 2023 (edited) Good morning, wondering if any of you own this same year, TDI model and trim ? If so how would you review your purchase after 100k miles HAPPY ? NOT HAPPY ? ETC... THANK YOU IN ADVANCE. (btw this is in the US so emission mods are a factor) Drew.

Steve Q Posted August 27, 2023 Share Posted August 27, 2023 I'd recommend you watch buyers guides on YouTube. If it's the 3.0tdi is reliable as a general rule. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

7DREW Posted September 5, 2023 Author Share Posted September 5, 2023 (edited) I did buy it, but it was exhibiting a strange popping/flapping noise when braking fairly hard, in sequence to the speed of the car, so the dealership replaced the front brakes which appeared to have fixed it, but now its back, so I opened up a new topic to this forum. Thank you. Edited September 5, 2023 by 7DREW Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Magnet Posted September 5, 2023 Share Posted September 5, 2023 Hello Drew, Sorry to hear about the return of your issue, but regrettably, I think it’s going to be almost impossible to diagnose your issue without examining the car, so it sounds like a return visit to the selling dealer. Your may get possible suggestions on here, but if it were mine, I would be returning it for further inspection and sorting without delay - after all, it’s a brake associated issue, and you just don’t want to be guessing a possible cause. Kind regards, Gareth. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve Q Posted September 5, 2023 Share Posted September 5, 2023 Garage has to fix this foc in the first 30 days after purchase. You could get an alternative opinion from another garage incase the supplying dealer is trying to fob you off. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
