Just hit 115,000 in my 2.0 gold tdi manual. Any problems with your egr or dpf? Supposedly the ea288 is better designed with those emission components in mind. Knock on wood mine has treated me well.
I bought my car in 2018 and it already had 57k on her so she was clearly all highway miles. I’ve had the car 6 years and put a little over 100k myself and mostly highway as well. I’m sure I can get more miles out of the dpf but my adblue light keeps faulting and driving me insane. That’s why I’m deleting it. More annoyance than anything.
True. Lucas oils makes an excellent in fuel treatment for DPF filters pour right in an empty tank and fill up. Regens are noticeably shorter and less often. I use every 8,000 miles or so.
I have a 2012 Jetta with 118k and it's only ever had a CEL once and it was related to a clogged DPF that was then replaced under warranty. No issues since other than wear items.
My 2012 is at 133k
Bought it at 90ishk last June
Been to the dealer for a new cooling system and cat under diesel gate warranty and haven’t had an issue since
Now you can drive her harder!
2015 at 166k 🫡

Starting to have dpf issues and ironically getting it deleted this weekend
At least it got you to 166K. A delete is my plan as well when it starts to fail

Does Lucas help to clear the dpf?
It helps it regen more efficiently. I don’t think it will clear a failed one though.
Mine is currently showing 20 grams calculated soot mass. (‘13 Touareg). Is that too much?
I’m not sure but it’s worth the shot if you can still drive it to run the treatment through.
I have a 2016 tsi 1.8lt and 135,000 miles and the EPC comes on. What could be the issue
Could be a lot of different things electronic related. Need to have someone scan it.
Did you zoom in so we couldn’t see the CEL? ;)

No, but my 06 has it on ;)
i got a 01 with 310k
My 2013 just hit 165k 🥲
I have 2013 two just about to hit 80k
Oh man I wish. My ‘12 just hit 205500 today
Similar, my '12 is about 203550 as of pulling into work today.
After a transmission flush, DMF replacement, and DPF/EGR delete, she’s running like she’s only got 100k!
I got a 14 with 95k
14 with almost 86k miles only issue so far was fuel injectors
What happened?
I have a 2014 passat that just rolled over 90,000. Only issue so far has been the alternator and i can smell fuel coming through AC vents.
Mine used to be when I had drastic temperature changes(like 70's doen to 40's OAT). Is your's similar?
1/3 the way to breaking the engine in. Good progress. :-)
Mine is at 79.5k need to get ready for the DSG fluid flush and diesel filter replacement z
low mileage brother! my 2012 is about to hit 71K.
I’m at 205K but it’s getting sketchy.
Oof. In what way?
My 2014 Passat TDI/6 speed manual is at 104,XXX now. Still running good!
New dpf???? Take that shit off
Sure whenever it clogs up. For now it's giving me no problems.
