- So, this is the VW Golf Mk6, and Ive had this car for a few days so though it would be good to make a video on 5 things I love about this hatchback. It is a pleasant surprise and caught me off guard.

I used to own this car .. such uncredible car ... cheap with great performance despite being a diesel .. i love it
Thanks for the video. I have the bluemotion version and agree with all your points. The car has a quality feel too.
Love the Two Door Cinema Club in the beginning 😌
Ive bought GTIs for years. Decided on the mk6 GTD a couple years back. Its by far the best car ive owned. Cant see myself selling it anytime soon. Good review.
The gas (diesel!) at low rpm is just the idle governor. All cars have an idle governor, but not all cars are capable of idling while going up a hill. That's a diesel thing. The MK6 TDI also has a low idle when in neutral that would normally be too low to prevent severe lugging, but reduces fuel consumption when stationary. It will go to high idle when you start to bring up the clutch in gear, and also when it's doing a regen.
Didn't mention the sound proofing! Can barely tell it's a diesel sometimes!
I've owned one of these cars for the past 2 years. same year, engine and number of doors and I would not be able to make a list of 5 things I hate. Simply brilliant car and never gave me any issues. I have no intention of selling her soon
Omg glad to read this im thinking of buying one but people are saying it will have issues😭 but i only plan to have it for 2 years and buy one with low milage. How high is your milage ?
lx i it’s at 105k now and I got it at around 75k
@@shanecalvey9518 Omg cool! Thats good to know! I just bought one at 55ks a few days ago😊 i love it so much! Thanks
So it’s a filly
@@serene4961 How is it? I've been reading on forums for its unreliability too.. So wanted to know how it is so far for you?
My 2011 Bluemotion 1.6 diesel does over 80mpg on longer motorway runs and averages 60mpg doing more local journeys.
I'm the second owner having bought it at 3 years old and the last 8 years motoring has been a total pleasure as this car the most reliable vehicle I've ever owned.
Those that call them have probably never even driven one.
VW had invested lots in minimizing road and wind noise by having an extra windscreen installed. This was applied to the Golf and GTI. I use to drive a MK5 and it was super quiet inside. These are very well built cars. Great video!
Mk7 golf isn’t as good for refinement
@@forza223bowe5 Yeah but you don't buy these hot hatchbacks for refinement. Luxury cars are intended for that.
Got a 2001 Polo 86,700 miles, no rattles, tight as a drum. 'nuff said.
Thank you , helped me decide on it as thought the 1,6 wasn’t enough engine but after seeing your review I think it will do 👍
Great video, thanks for creating.
Great video going to but this car soon thanks for your top 5 helped a bunch ☺
I had the exact same car, a 1.6 TDi 105PS. Sadly it started to cost me money. Injectors, EGR valve and that darn DMF. Unless you're doing upwards of 20k miles per year you need the petrol.
Agree. Diesel cars need long highway miles
Really good video mate :)
bought a mk6 today. lets see how it goes. on a test drive, i was extremely impressed how comfortable the clutch was! throttle response felt like a 2L engine too on lower gears
TurkishRider does it have Bluetooth
Merhaba turkishrider nasil golf mk6 memnunmusun herhangibi bir ariza oldu mu?
@@AnonymousHLT yes it does!
@@Sozzi924 2 ay sonra GT86 ile degistirdim. Hic bir sorun yok, kesinlikle oneririm. Spor araba istedigimden sattim
TurkishRider Çok tesekur ederim yorumunuz için,nedense tsi tdi motorlarda yag yakimi ve sorunlar mevcut diyorlar ondan biraz kafam karismadi degil :)
Thank you, very useful video.

I've got the same engine in my smaller fabia Monte Carlo and you definitely feel it. Also I put mine on a rolling road and the engine was producing 119.4bhp and 225ftlb which is why you can feel it shift in those engines.
Do you experience any blowby in your 1.6?
@@adammillar8804 blowby?
@@Lewis_Treff97 After driving, if you remove the dipstick with engine running or engine cap is smoke shooting out? and is there any oil spitting out also?
@@adammillar8804 never really checked but I don't think it ever did.
ha must sound great starting up in winter
I have a 2012 Golf with a 2.5-liter inline five and an automatic transmission. There's nothing about it that I don't like - except for the stall that took my dealer seventeen tires to fix. Oh yeah, and U.S.-spec Mark 6 Golfs have English-only (no metric) speedometers.
I've noticed it too that it automatically gives gas when you're at low rpm, quite annoying when you're in a traffic jam and it suddenly accelerates when you're creeping forward
Interesting, mine doenst do that really. I just use clutch and it glides along nicely
It's actually anti stall - the car is saving you from a stall. Learn to drive!
I guess you couldn't find anything to hate about this car? 😉
(Since I can't find that video.)
If I were to buy a mk6 Golf it would be the GTD. More power and more torque. 😁
🤣
I’ve got this exact same model. I broke down on Motorway coz of fuel injector, car went on limp mode. The mechanics put diesel treatment init and drives fine now. Very weird.
On a flat my Skoda superb tdi130 would go through the gears from stand still on tickover only up to just under thirty and sit there.
Iv got this but in a Jetta when the cam belt due?
I love my golf tdi. One thing I hate is that it’s not rwd but that’s it hahah
I prefer the golf 6, it’s very quiet on the move too
Is the Mk6 TDi ULEZ compliant?
where is the link for hte 5 things i hate? about this car?
Any thoughts on getting a golf as a first car? Although I would be looking at the 1.4l version. Any response appreciated!
I drive a 1.4 TSI Golf Mk6, and I've test-driven a lot of MK7s. If you're going for a new one, pick either the 1.2 TSI or the 1.5 TSI if you're looking for a gas machine, or if you want anything with more grunt, go for the 2.0 TDI Diesel. That one is a beast. If you're going for a used one, try to avoid the 1.4 TSI on the Mk6. It's a great machine, but it can get issues with the timing chain. Instead, go for the 1.2 TSI. Avoid any non-turbocharge engines. Not because of the engine itself, but because of the gearbox. The non-turbo machines only get a 5-speed manual, while the others get a 6-speed. Trust me, you want 6 gears ^^
GeoStreber it's been a while mate, I ended up getting a more practical option and have a Mini instead which is pretty nice, 1.6 with 98bhp so some decent speed for a first car- also physically nicer size being smaller than a golf. Got a spoiler, some nice tyres, black wheels,black roof and planning on dechroming so it's working out well! Thanks Anyway!
Max2k I wouldn'T consider a Mini more practical than a Golf. And you'll definately pay more in maintenance because Mini belongs to BMW, so there's practically no way to do even minor repairs yourself. VW are way more tolerating in that sense. Does the 1.6 have 3 or 4 cylinders? I'm pretty sure the current ones start with 1.5L three-cylinders, which are basically BMW 3.0 straight-six engines sawed in half.
GeoStreber when I said more practical, I meant for my uses in that i don't need a 5d, boot space isn't important and for a first car I want something smaller to be easier to park and manoeuvre (my opinion). Mine is a 2011 1.6 with 4 cylinders so it's not like the new f56's that have the 1.5l engines.
+Mark2k - I'd always go for a five door. But I guess that's just personal taste.
its not the clutch ur just useing the tickover speed & heavy flywheel that seams to make them unstallable
Would you still recommend now? I'm tied between this and the 1.4 TSI.
You won’t be disappointed with either car but I would recommend the TDI. I have a golf gt tdi and I love it. Good luck mate.
What engine?
Wasn’t that engine involved in the vw emissions and mpg scam?
Yeah better mpg lol. Nothing hugeee
I do generally love these but that engine is too slow for. I would sacrifice abit of mpg for the 2 litre diesel and then remap it to make 300 ft lbs of torque
i have a golf 6 GTI
So... what are you trying to say that this is good as Porshe 911? ;-)
Might want to include the fact this is a diesel version in the actual title and description. What you love will not apply to owners with different versions...
I disagree with you I think it’s a lovely looking car if you want a terrible looking car get a ford
surprised he's talking about miles per hour.
ye thqts normal in england(i think he is from england cuz he is a right side driver)
tats ot the clutch takeing over its just ur useing it on tick over all diesels trucks vanns cars the all the same ....yam learning man
I don't like dpf problem
barely hear it.
Nothing special to look at . You should have gone to specsavers mate.
Not that I give a shit but you fail to actually state the torque figure!
cfbm125 2.07
Not a good car, i would advise not to buy one of these at high mileage!
Why not
@@khalid9085 has too many issues, dpf, egr, don't waste your time, buy a petrol
Manjit Dhillon Damn too late I’ve just bought one for my first car 75000 on it and the check engine light is always on
@@khalid9085does it have the glow plug on?
Manjit Dhillon it does I need to take it in for service, the intake pipe at the front connected to the air box is broken
Diesel is dead. Volkswagen is focussing now on new energy cars.
