Worst Car ever purchased

This car has been nothing but a headache. We purchased it after the emission modification. The car has been nothing but a money pit. Cost over $800.just to change the thermostat. Replaced the DEF and now the engine blew. This is a TDI, and if you want to avoid doling out tons of money, steer clear!

Of all the cars I've owned over 60 years( and there have been many ), this Passat has been the most dependable, reliable and least troublesome. I will hate to part with it if and when I have to.
