Volkswagen Golf GTI 2006 Overview

The Volkswagen Golf GTI always had a good following here, even though hatchbacks were never so popular in this region. The 4-cylinder turbocharged 2.0-litre GTI is satisfyingly fast and features a dual-clutch automanual gearbox that is still rare in any class of car that was affordable at the time. The Golf comes standard with available safety features such as front and side-curtain airbags, ABS brakes and optional ESP, alongside available convenience features like power windows and CD stereo.

Known Problems Over-sensitive auto-headlight and wiper rain sensors are considered normal. Various squeaks and rattles develop within warranty period, most from cabin trim but some from suspension components. Stereo, radiator fans, door seals and steering rack all known to fail. Early models have ignition coil failure, just like previous-generation models, so some owners carry extra ignition coils to avoid getting stranded. Some report that radio may turn on and drain battery even when parked. Some a/c compressor and condenser failures reported in GTI model. Many having problems with DSG automanual gearbox, due to failure of "Mechatronic Control Module." Turbo oil seals fail in GTI models as soon as warranty is up.
