I just scrapped a car with a 1.9 tdi. 260,000 miles on it. The engine was still running perfectly, never gave an ounce of trouble and was still really economical. In general diesels have a reputation for lasting longer. Would be interesting to know what kind of an outfit your friend works for. They would be worth avoiding.
- davedx 13y agoYup, our Seat Leon TDI is still going strong at 300,000 kms. It's an amazing car, we'll almost certainly be getting the same model when (if?) this one ever breaks.
- thedrbrian 13y ago1.9 Vw? Sounds like an older car since the new ones have 2 litre engines. Older diesels are fantastic even the vw PD engines. My friend was talking about the newer Euro4 and Euro5 engines.
