if u r looking for auto, make sure u check for any issues with gear box... can be very costly in the future.
As far as the CVT is concerned, has anybody's CVT failed?
I hear a number of reports about shudders in the CVT (mine included) which can be fixed with new oils and a reset but I haven't come across or read any reported CVT failures to date....... anyone?
sorry folks - forgot to add we're looking at manual only! so thankfully we won't have to deal with any of these 'issues' with CVT!
hopefully we'll be taking one for a spin this sat - so i'll keep you updated on how we go!

thanks MIRZ - just what i wanted to hear! didn't get a chance to drive one over the weekend - the one we wanted to drive got sold :( so the search continues!Quote:

how much was it to replace? just spoke to a client of mine who drive an 05 vti-s and he's clocked up 85,000km's without any major issues! still on same tyres and discs!!Quote:
