Well I should add I've heard great things about their diesels, and any of their older air cooled engines, plenty of 60's era bugs/super beatles on the road! The problem came when VW group started part sharing between audi and vw. My passat has the audi A4 engine in it, down to the symbols on the hoses. These water cooled, microchip driven engines give a lot of performance, but if they get just a little out of whack it kills. I've also had a problem with interior parts. My power window controls have had to be replaced, most plastic parts in the dash and doors have started to peel, bulbs burning out in the dash etc. My only solace is it feeds my need for speed
