Have a nice evening, look for day-long headaches Help with the search for a new used car! Drive now 40.000km / year due to a job change! (50% highway / 40% highway / 10% city) Until recently I thought it would be cheaper to buy a diesel at the km driving performance! My budget for this is max. 13.000€ Since the car of the family car it should be a middle class car with charging capacity! (2 children) (VW Passat / VW Golf Variant / O pel Astra Sports Tourer or similar) On the used car market you will find many TDI ́s for the money with a mileage of approx.100,000km! Plan a minimum useful life of 5 years! (so is KmStand des Cars (here: 100.000km + 200,000km driving performance) After long searches here and in the WWW I come now to the conclusion that it will probably be cheaper to buy a simple “saug” gasoline! Here fall into the closer selection of the VW Passat B5 / VW Golf V or VI with the 1.6 liter Ma or the Chevrolet Orlando with 1.8 liters cylinder capacity! Remuneration: + the resulting DPF change at approx. 150,000km + (due to numerous Treads) the threatening turbocharger damage at 200,000km + defective injectors + defective of the fuel pump etc. At a km power of up to 300,000km the probability is the minimum one of the above mentioned defects very likely! Or? It will be different to me! Where is the time of the durable diesel engines! That seems to me the High Tech Diesel ( CR) only to be lucrative as a new or leasing car! What do you think about it? I would be very grateful for opinions and tips!
