Our son has a 2014 TDI wagon and loves it!
They have a downside, the DSG double clutch 40,000k maintenance.
The dealer took him for about $600+, he used the VW rebate; only place he can spend it.
Note he drives over 200 miles each day, to work and back.
We have a Prius V wagon, not quite as roomy and far lower maintenance.
I think he spends more for the trans than fuel?
If he keeps it we will buy the special tools.
You probably know about tools from eBay.
