I've replaced a battery, 2 exhausts and brake pads in that time. Literally that's it, just maintenance and fuel.
Especially if you've got a 2019+ Mk7.5, stock Performance Pack brakes will be plenty. That's what I brought to the Dragon. Just make sure your brake fluid is good and you're not due for new pads and rotors for a bit.
1.4 auto is a good box. Will be nippy but get the brakes checked and renewed if necessary.
I have the 2018 (CVT). Bought it secondhand. Daily driven + i already driven it back and forth sa Manila and Baguio 4-5x already this year. I already clocked in 8k sa odo, ang pinaka naging issue ko lang is napudpod na brake pads + motor ng wiper na nasira.
I needed upgrades brakes (rear drums to discs), upgraded shocks with camber+caster adjustment, rear axle needed to be bent to give me more camber since GE8's don't have shimming like the GK or GD.
My only issue is squeaky brakes on reverse. The dealership told me to do some hard braking when they get squeaky, and that actually helps.
My rear breaks also wore out faster. I just had them replaced (1 month outside the extended warranty lmao kms) at 27k km.
I'm convinced the MK6 just has shitty brakes (I mean they do stop but I think they're just bad). I've had 2 of them and they both wear unevenly, hang up, or just in general wear out too quickly.
If you have white, the break dust will color your car.
I went to Northland VW this past spring for my 22 jetta, just for an oil change and inspection. Their oil change was close to $200 and then they said I needed my front brake pads and rotors changed. They quoted me close to $1000 for that, for just the front brakes!!! I went to lordco and bought the parts myself and got a local shop to put them on. Going that route cut the cost in half.
