I have owned my 2000 Volkswagen Passat since it was new and in general enjoy its speed and agility. The Monsoon system is unparalled for a factory system. I've now got 82,000 miles on it and its the biggest pile of garbage in existence. While the engine runs well, it mysteriously uses one quart of oil every 800 miles. VW thinks this is acceptable! It has front suspension problems with the tie-rods and bearings wearing, and needs a water pump replacement. All in all, this has been a rapidly declining ownership experience

Wow...I just bought my '00 Passat GLS turbo sedan (moonroof, alloys) 2 weeks ago and I couldn't be any happier with it. The car got me 34mpg going from Ocean City, MD to central NJ! German engineering at its best!
Nice vehicle, poor reliability

I got this vehicle used, so part of the problem may be that the seller did'nt tell me anything. However, since I have had the vehicle, there have just been way too many repairs (tunk release, water leaks in the trunk, dead engine, unalighned frame, short circuited cd player). Anyway, I've had to pay for all of this because the car was out of warranty. While these arent the only problems, VW service is horrible. Ive come to them several times with problems, and they charge me but cant answer them, or fix something the wrong way, leading me to seak help from others.

In less than one year I had 3 sensors replaced (gas,exhaust sensor,Ican't recallthe 3rd.)At just over one year the water pump broke a part & was replaced. Istill can't trust the gas sensor. Mirror came off cracking the windshield,It makes crinking noises everytime I go over a small speed bump (felt in gear shift(is starting to loosen up) & drivers side.Can't find out cause of this.It does start every am & is fun to drive.Lack of storage in passenger compartment.
