Love this car as it's still averaging ~5.3 l/100 km as the long term fuel consumption average over the last 178,000 kms and it still handles and rides great. It get's serviced every 10,000 kms (or close enough) and has had two timing belts changed to schedule. Just fitted my third set of Yokohama AE-50 tyres all round, too.
That's awesome to see that yours is still running great!

I have some questions though:

1) Do you know if it is still on it's original Dual Mass Flywheel and Clutches?
I heard it is a common issue with mt with dmf, they require more maintenance.
2) On what kms did you change the 2x timing belts?
Aside from the timing chain (also has one) that is due at 240,000


p.s I'm looking at buying meself a six year old diesel soon.
