Lost my 08 Rabbit two weeks ago. Found an 08 GTI at a local dealer, asking way too much for it, but thought I would go check it out.
Dealer claims they replaced the turbo and entire engine, but the general manager has the paperwork in his desk so the salesman can't show it to me at the moment.
I finally get to take the car out, slow day for me, and park it to run a VCDS scan...
Wow! So much red. There were 10 modules with fault codes, from headlight leveling to no power to the cluster, to intermittent fuel pump...
I told them about my concerns, and they offered to knock off $600 if I buy it now for $14,000....
I literally laughed out loud, yes LOL'd, stood up and walked out.
I am just worried about the unsuspecting buyer who will end up with this POS...
I hate dealerships for a reason.
