Munich, Germany·6/9/2026·willhaben.at
72% încredere
The vehicle has reasonable mileage for its age and is priced near market value. However, the missing service history and undisclosed number of previous owners are significant gaps that warrant a pre-purchase inspection before committing.

Semnale de risc
Seller states no service booklet is available. At 127,000 km, the timing belt service status on this 1.6 TDI engine is critical and cannot be verified.
Ad does not mention ownership history. Multiple owners on a 9-year-old vehicle can indicate problems or fleet use.
City-use diesel vehicles with 127,000 km commonly develop DPF blockage. Ask seller about recent motorway driving history.
Manual transmission avoids the DSG clutch pack issues common in this generation.

Probleme frecvente la acest model
1.6 TDI EA288 engine: timing belt replacement is due every 5 years or 120,000 km — critical at this mileage. Ask for receipts.
High-pressure fuel pump (HPFP) failures reported on early EA288 engines. Check for rough idle or hard starting.
Water ingress into rear lights (Golf 7 known issue). Check for condensation inside tail lights.
AdBlue system (if equipped) requires periodic refills. Not applicable to pre-2017 non-Euro 6d models.

- Road tax in Germany: approx. €160/year for this displacement.
- Insurance (comprehensive): €600–900/year for an average driver profile.
- Budget €400–600 for scheduled maintenance.
- Factor in a €600 timing belt service if history is unverified.

Listă de verificare la inspecție
- 1Check timing belt condition and ask workshop to verify service interval
- 2OBD diagnostic scan for fault codes (especially DPF, EGR, HPFP)
- 3Inspect underbody for rust (wheel arches, subframe, exhaust)
- 4Test all electronics: windows, climate control, infotainment
- 5Check all four tyre tread depths and tyre age
- 6Inspect for rear tail light condensation
- 7Verify HU sticker matches March 2026 (present on windscreen)
- 8Test drive: cold start, motorway speed, full braking
- 9Check oil for emulsification (milky texture = head gasket risk)
- 10Verify VIN on chassis plate, windscreen, and registration document matches
Puncte de negociere
- 1Missing service history justifies a €500–800 reduction to cover timing belt replacement cost
- 2If OBD scan reveals pending fault codes, use repair estimates as leverage
- 3Unknown ownership history: request a Carfax or HPI check — if seller refuses, factor in the risk
- 4Make timing belt service a condition of purchase (done before handover)
Pasul următor recomandat
If the seller can provide any evidence of timing belt service, arrange a pre-purchase inspection at an independent VW workshop (cost: €80–120). Do not pay a deposit before the inspection is complete. If no service history is available at all, negotiate a price reduction of at least €800 to cover the belt replacement as your first service.
