Bought my 2005 1.8t at 83k miles and my second day with it, discovered busted cylinder head in 3 places. A year later the power steering line leaked, and a month later the handbrake connection to the rear right caliper busted. Also had the evap valve replaced. Love driving it though

Great review! You could also estimate each problem of how expensive it is to fix.. so from 1 to 5 stars how reliable is the 3.0 petrol 2003?
