Hey everyone I need help.

[drew_grantham]

I new to this thread, but I was wondering what your opinions of a 2001 jetta 1.8t with 101,000 miles. Im thinking about trading my car in for it. I was wondering if you guys could tell me how reliable they are and if it would be a good car to purchase. Do jettas have problems? are they hard to fix? easy to mod? I hope you guys will give me some real answers and not some bs Thanks!

1.8 engine had some problems but for the age mileage of the car I'm sure they were addressed all ready

How much is this car?
General conditions? Do you have any pic?

Oh and by the way they are easy to mod and very reliable when properly maintained

What car are you trading? What transmission does the Jetta have? How well has it been maintained?

[Adolfsatan]

Lots of problems.
Unreliable
Expensive to fix.
Easy to mod.
Mods greatly increase the unreliability factor.

and since you mentioned trading in and will be dealing with a dealer :

get a pre-purchase inspectin and scrutinize maintenance history

The car cost about 5700. It is in very good condition inside in out. I was just worried about getting a car thats going to break on me often. I drive a 05 lancer es it reliable but slow as **** and it auto. I post reply with link later. Oh and its Wolfberg edition.

thanks for the information btw it helped.

I would more or less be concerned with the timing belt. The motors are tit to work on. Mk4's are plagued with interior pieces braking all the time. I personally favor that particular engine platform
