About the Golf 6
The Golf 6 was built from 2008 to 2012, and the Golf Variant estate until 2013. It is based on the Golf 5 but has better sound insulation, a higher-quality interior and a new generation of common-rail diesel engines.
Engines and gearboxes
The most common engines are the 1.6 TDI and 2.0 TDI common-rail diesels, which are quieter and more economical than the older pump-injector units. Common petrols are the 1.2 TSI, 1.4 TSI and the non-turbo 1.4 and 1.6. Besides manuals, a 6- or 7-speed DSG was offered.
What to check when buying
On early 1.2 and 1.4 TSI engines, check the timing chain: a rattle on a cold start means it needs replacing. On the 7-speed DSG, watch for judder and check whether the mechatronic unit has been serviced. On diesels, check the DPF and the service history.
FAQ
Golf 6 FAQ
The Golf 6 is considered reliable, especially with the 1.6 and 2.0 TDI common-rail engines. As with any car this age, regular maintenance and the condition of the specific car are what matter most.
The 1.6 TDI is the most common choice for its low consumption and cheap maintenance. The 2.0 TDI is stronger on the motorway. The non-turbo 1.4 petrol is simple, and the TSI engines are livelier but need a timing-chain check.
The Golf 6 has a quieter cabin, a better interior, a more modern design and common-rail diesels instead of pump-injector engines. The platform is the same, so many parts are shared.
