Some of the BKD engines had injectors issues but VW did a recall.

On mine there's a vibration when accelerating past around 25-30 mph. Its only very faint and a mechy friend of mine said he can't feel it and I'm dreaming, in fact I'm the only one who notices it. Its just passed its test and I asked them to check all bushes thinking they'd find something but all came back fine.

Maybe I am dreaming but just something to check when testing any. Apart from that is a great vehicle, loads of space and comfort.

Hi,

Its only going to be 2nd or 3rd. Its an auto box, the DSG, its only low speed just like a wheel out of balance. Nobody else notices it but I'm sure I can feel it.

Maybe as the saying goes, I shouldn't look to hard for problems!
