Known Problems
Plastic timing belt pulley on 1.4-litre and 1.6-litre engines fail, so timing belt, tensioner and pulley should be changed every 4 years to avoid engine damage. VW-sourced turbo engine suffers from occasional ignition coil failure, although redesigned coils supposedly rectify problem. Creaking front suspension reported. Failure of mass air-flow sensor seems common. Moisture enters headlights and tail-lights. Numerous electrical problems as cars get older, including dead electric windows, broken door locks, faults with immobiliser in keyless remote, permanently-on brake lights, loss of power due to EGR valve problem, failing power steering, and random faults with a/c, radio and airbags. Various rattles due to loose cabin trim.
