I see a 2000 Jetta TDI GL for sale, 345K on it. Timing belt and Turbo done 25K ago apparently. for $1800. Recent clutch. Can one of these do another 100k without major repair?

If you want to get a book and work on your car. Buy it. Otherwise. That series on VW is the worst they ever made. So Probably not.
Let me ask you another question. Is the car $1800? . Or is that the price it cost to replace the timing belt and turbo.
Think about that. And decide accordingly.
If you cant work on it. Everytime its in the shop. You better have $500- $1000 to buy your car back.
Thanks for the replies. I do work on my car but I don't tear down engines or replace transmissions. 1800 is selling price, I know the work done must have cost more... TDIClub noted. I'll ask about the timing belt. Thanks Les
