Anyone not have issues with their MK6?

[Leeland111]

I'm trying to catch the tail end of the MK6's, but I keep reading the horror stories. I'd like to hear from the folks that have been trouble free.

2011 57k miles. K04 installed around 10k then f23t installed around 45k. Only issue was water pump replaced under warranty while f23t.

I've got 28,000 km on a 2012, no issues whatsoever.

26,000 miles. Nothing.

My 2012 has 33k on it. Intake manifold replaced at 20k, but otherwise PERFECT. Wife's Honda and her previous car (Toyota) had more problems.

55K miles on my 2010 DSG GTI and I haven't had a single part fail. I still get paranoid after reading all the horror stories online, but so far so good. For whatever reason it seems people either have almost no problems with their car or a ton of problems, not much in the middle.

2012 MK6 MT with about 15.2k miles on it. Replaced coil packs (precautionary) and had a funky start once. No real problems though.

knock on wood.

2011 gti 36k

nothing yet...

2013 purchased in Nov 2012... 15k miles with zero issues. Don't believe the hype.

The issues are blown out of proportion because it's an online forum and people are quick to post problems. No one posts a thread about how they've had no issues and everything has been great.

2013 bought in November '13. Just about to break 5k mikes no issues.

True, people will only post about problems. Not post to say how great the car has been running for X amount of miles. Very similar to how a boss treats you at work.

16k miles, bought in June of 2012.

Zero mechanical issues on stock GTI (aside from major VAGCOM fettling)

Only issue is alignment gets knocked off by potholes sort of easily; or it could just be moody Dunlops.

Either way... Very sound car.

2011, 36,500 miles on the clock. Other the coil packs. Not a single problem. Knock on wood.
