first thing is don't buy it if you intend to keep it after warranty. The 2.0 is a garbage engine after 60,000 miles. Unless yuo want to put a quart of oil in every 400 miles, want to pay for a new turbo or you want to repair the timing chain.
Wow hyperbolic much mate? It's VW"s most used engine. Been around forever and is pretty much a known quantity now. Used across the entire Audi and VW range. Also if buying new there are a range of extended warranty offerings that would take care of the issues you mentioned free of charge. We have an Audi diesel that's been under warranty all its life pretty much. Just had a glow plug failure replaced for free (the car is over 10 years old now). Also the diesel particulate filter was replaced at 8 years (carries a lifetime warranty) also for free. That said I don't know if I"d buy the 2024 model. Seems like something more innovative is just around the corner. Something that will better compete with the new 2024 BMW 5 series.
