This video made Scotty Kilmer half mad.

Hoovie is taking notes. You’d best believe he’s going to buy all the “do not buys”.

2015 golf TDI owner here, in my experience the 15s are great and mine has been solid, doesn’t burn oil, gets 60mpg highway at slower speeds, and is fun to drive and handles great - some of my friends have gotten their 2015 TDIs to 300k miles already with no adblue issues nor any clogged DPFs !

Took a chance and bought a 2020 Golf about a year ago. Wasn’t crazy about it at first; it was smaller than anything I’d ever had before. One year later and I absolutely love the thing. I’ll be driving it till the wheels fall off

Hoovie: I bought the cheapest W12 Phaeton.

vw is nice because a lot luxury things from their other high end brands bleed down into the vw cars

My 2007 gas Passat wolfsberg was honestly great. Really nice leather seats, very spacious, and would get up to like 32-33 mpg on the highway and like 24-25 city. Had no issues almost ever, got in an accident and it is solid. The turbo was sufficiently fun as well

The 24v VR6 is bulletproof as well. I've had my 2003 GTI VR6 for almost 19 years now, as my daily driver, and the only mechanical issue I had was the cooling fan dying after 80,000 miles. That's it! I still have the original timing chain too. The 24v VR6 was an improvement over the original 12v VR6, in that the timing chain lasts longer because of the improved, longer lasting chain guides.

I almost fell off my chair when he mention the Phaeton. One of the 1st to actually recommend this car. I own a 04 and love it

German Pro-Tip:

I had a CC and loved it. The Alltrack is hard to beat for traction, interior space, and fun. I love how everything maintenance related is easily accessible. My grandpa had a TDI Jetta around for over 20 years and it survived his lack of general maintenance. Its sad to hear about the new deisel problems

"The whole emission system for these diesels are just an absolute nightmare."

"golf small car" Here in germany they litteraly have 2 models that are smaller.

The 1.9 TDI is the best one. Unbreakable.

I am hooked on your videos!Your voice is so much anti stress.What is said,so clever.Thank you very much indeed.Regards

I had a 1.9 tdi as my first car. LOVED that engine. Only 90hp from the factory, but damn that is the fastest 90hp I've ever felt. With a tune and injector nozzles and a big pump, that thing put out huge ass torque. CV axle snapping torque. After all the mods, I literally snapped my cv axles 😭

Those old 1.9 TDIs would still be running long after a dystopian nuclear apocalypse. I miss mine so much 🙁

98 tdi jetta with 400k miles still goin strong

Mate you are spot one on everything. Such a breath of fresh air to see such videos with a pragmatic, factual opinion. You have gained a sub in me. Love

I have a 2.5 2012 Passat se and it’s amazing. Not the most power but I’ll tell you it’s a bulletproof engine being voted engine of the year for four consecutive years
