Common problems and what to check

Engine: VW/Audi EA888 (1.8–2.0 TSI/TFSI)

  • timing chain stretch and tensioner on early engines
  • plastic water pump and thermostat housing leaks

What to check when buying: oil consumption; chain noise on cold start; coolant traces near the water pump.

Gearbox: DSG DQ200 (7-speed, dry clutch)

  • mechatronic failure (cracked pressure accumulator, circuit board)
  • dry clutch wear
  • jerks when pulling away and in traffic jams
