Hello fellow BITOGer's, hope you all had a good day! Just want some opinions here, my girlfriend has a 2014 Jetta with the new 1.8T. Wondering what your thoughts are of this vehicle. I dont know a whole lot about VW. I know historically speaking they have not been known for reliability but if I am correct this new 1.8 is based of the gas 2.0T which has been around for some time and overall has been pretty trouble free. She has the SE model with the automatic transmission. What kind of "life expectancy" do these VW's typically have before they become money pits? How do VW auto transmissions hold up, this one has the regular 6 speed auto NON dsg. Also, I am very unfamiliar with turbo'ed engines. How long do turbos usually hold up? I do like the car, it behaves very well for a car in its class, has great torque and good MPG's. As far as oil and OCI's go, I'm not sure I like the 10K OCI with an engine that has direct injection and a turbo, seems like VW is asking for trouble there. It has around 3K miles and it has consumed a quart of oil already, but its still in the break in period so as of now I suppose its nothing to worry about.
