i turned 18 about 4 months ago and 1 month after my birthday my father bought me a mk4 golf tdi alh since i only owned it for 3 months now i cant really say much but at first it was quite a hassle. bought the car end of march or early april and it was quite some work 2 massive holes in the floor battery was fucked brakes needed to be done and some other rust aswell so yeah it was fucked but we bought it fpr 400 EUR and after everything we did we spend (with registration etc) about 1800 EUR on it so yeah it was about 2 months of work to fix it and now im optic tuning it. i just spend 180 EUR on a cleaned tailgate with votex spoiler (looks the best imo) so now we need to figure out how to open it after we install it next things the i will do are angel eyes and blacked out taillights (legal in my country) and 225/35 R18 i think they are the wheels i need to register but the lights i just need to build in. so what exactly was the point of this whole text? tbh idk why i wrote all that buy yourself a mk4 and after a few months it will grow on you (btw 8000 km in 3 months) and for anybody wondering if 90hp my be too less 210nm of torque and trust me you will feel it may not be the fastest and doesnt have the best 0-100kph but it will bring you from a to b and you will have fun with your own little shitbox like i do. (for anybody wondering you would be surprised how tuned some of the mk4's came out of the factory i mean air suspension 19 inch wheels lowered to almost kiss the ground)

First car - corsa 1.2 2008. In my heart. Nowadays golf gti. Corsa prepared me for this monster 😅

The 1 ltr eco boom engines are shite .

I think i will buy a MK4 golf and see how this video holds up, you've peaked my interest quite a bit youngster

Are you going for the "I just swallowed a Xanax" schtick?

How much in € CIF To Cyprus EU.

haha love the humor!

I love my mk4 golf ! One of the best buys of my life , the only problem i ever had with it was the standard seats which gave me unbearable lower back and shoulder pains for years which made me not wanna drive it half the time i cant lie but ever since i changed the seats early this year ive had hardly any back pains like i used to get and i actually enjoy driving my car like i should

This is a great video, especially because I am about to get my hands on this car. Really excited to drive it as my daily; Also, I like how he goes about explaining all the juicy details.

Is there a ford fiesta 2012 1.6 diesel non turbo?? My mate is telling me he had a 1.6 diesel with no turbo

Number 1 injector

Every corsa ive had four in fact the blower goes off give the wires under the dash a wriggle comes on every time 😂

We just bought one of these yesterday for my son’s first car in Australia 1.6 litre. His is orange with a rear wing mags and exhaust 😂 it actually looks so cool. Thanks for the video I watched it on the way up yesterday to look at it.

a strange problem i have with my "new" golf4 (1.4, 2000) is when i start it cold, its instant. but after even 1 hour of driving, it barely starts and have to wait. few days ago it didnt start at all. at least it was a random free parking space ☠☠

Just buying a 2013 model (in Australia). Keeping it for a few months then passing it on to my Grandson. It's a manual, but has the bigger 1.5i engine. BTW most cars when imported to Australia have bigger engines than their European counterparts. Very sensible. The 1.5 L engine goes quite well. Grandson picked the car. Thanks for the vid. Love the light hearted banter.

I read the title of this video and I can’t accept it, many people have negative things to say about maintaining an older version VW. However as a die hard VW enthusiast I can’t accept that there is 5 things wrong. If there are problems with an older VW there can be only 1 thing wrong, it’s current owner!! 😂😂😂 #Vdub4life

Bought one my first car 850 euro for a car driven 230tkm❤

I went here last year and stayed in a mercades hotel w this in front

I didn’t know Leon from Resident Evil 4 made such great car reviews 😅

I moved to Greece 14-15 years ago and the first time that I set my eyes on the golf 4, I fell in love with it, still own it still love it, what hasn’t it done, where hasn’t it gone, when it’s time I’ll get a newer one, until then, I’ll keep her!!!!

I had the "blower only works on maximum" issue on my old Corsa D. It's to do with a fuse under the glove box. If you poke around with your foot in that area you can actually fix it for a while. I used to do it after work sometimes.

Cup holders for your backseat passengers are in the armrest, pull it down and there they are!!!!! Your welcome!!!!

Can you sleep in the boot with the back chairs down?

Not fun to drive? Try the 200hp GTI GLX VR6 version…

You can help the aircon a lot by setting recirculation on. If I do it in my golf I have to turn the AC slightly warmer otherwise it gets freezing cold inside.

Hey, just wanted to tell you that it does have cup holders in the front and tin the back, but only in the higher models. I have the mk4 1.8 20v 4motion and it has both cupholders.

I have an Mk4 Golf myself and it's the best first car! It's perfect for me and my small friend group. We all fit in the car even though it's small, and it's so easy to drive!

Thanks RHanson just sold my Bugatti Chiron and bought 13 Honda Jazz

deff do not miss those beeps lmao. ear piercing just how i remember them

Although not my first car i got a 2004 golf 2 door with the 2.0 and 5 speed manual. I had recently wrecked my 2002 jetta with the automatic 2.0 and i had a ton of parts i had found in junkyards as mk4s were super common at the time and as soon as i got into that golf i started throwing those parts in there. My favorite time being when i finally got my santa monica gli wheels fitted with tires and slapped them on. Guy i sold it to trashed the interior but fixed the rust and fixed it up mechanically. Almost want to buy it back i still have those old santa monicas at my parents shed.

Golfs are great cars and the MK4 is my favorite body style of Golf. The 1.8t GTI is very fun to drive and has great visibility like a little fish bowl.

Sold my 01 civic recently, might have to get me a jazz (Honda Fit here). This thing seems kind of wicked

my first car is a golf 4 with the 1.9tdi, plent of power for me and great fuel economy. i wouldnt want to drive anything else.

These are so strong

Is the nondescript white powder included with the Jazz, or do I have to pay extra for that?

Aaaaaand that’s another fantastic video. It’s obvious, the effort you put into these. Keep up the excellent work!

This bloke would find fault with a brand new Bentley!!!! Give it a rest.....these mk 4's were great when new, and 20+ years on, they still are. Much better than a Ford Focus of a similar age! You can buy a mid-spec 1.6 version in good nick for less than a grand if you look around.

Watt an absolute xit video waste of time don't bother....

I have one myself, i have the GTI model and its insane, when i reach high revs and change gear ( manual ) i can hear the stuuuu of the turbo. It looks beautiful and is beautiful. it is also EXTREMELY reliable, i drove over 1 million kilometers or 621 thousand miles so my baby isn't going anywhere any time soon 😂❤

About the throttle problem: I had the exact same symptoms for about a year until one day I stopped at a toll post and the engine shut off and wouldn't turn back on. It turned out that the fuel pump died and the symptoms were just that: the pump was slowly dying. If you are still having problems, check your fuel pump.

Ive just bought one for £350 with 274k on the clock and no mot...only failed MOT on a dodgy jacking point whoch cost £83 so overall im very happy. Its the PD130 so is quite zippy!

I agree with the "not fun to drive". It's great to drive but not fun simply because it's too heavy. I own a New Beetle, which is technically a Golf mk4. It's a 2.0 L 115 hp gasoline, which was the mk3 GTI engine, a car that was kind of blamed because no more power than the mk2 gti and yet many extra kg. The mk4 put that trend to a new level. I would love to have a Beetle that would be based technically on the Golf mk3 GTI, really.

Looks awesome!! Ever considered reviewing a R56 Mini Cooper?

the last 3 problems are skill issue

i’m 18 and i moved to another country with a decent economy that allows me to buy a car the same year i began working, my goal has been for a long time buying a car with all my saved up salaries (i save 90%) i wanted to buy a golf mk3 first, but my family started throwing shit at how it didnt have AC and it was a very old car, expensive parts, unreliability and all of that, then i started noticing there were quite a lot of golf MK4s through my city, i got in love with the grey golf after that and it’s what im after for what i love the most is its mix between curves and boxes at the same time, it is an authentic 1999 milennium transition era, i also love its 90’s car interior, the wheel, non-leather seats (i dont like modernity) and it overall seems to be a really good choice and i’ll probably keep it for a long time because i like it :) started to look for some options recently, saw one for $3400 dollars and i currently have saved up 2/3 of that so my family can loan me the rest until i get that money, cool vid bro :)

Buy a Toyota if you do not want these petty annoying problems. That's what I shall do after running a VW Tiguan MK2 for 8 years.

Kinda late to the party, but i bought a mk4 variant (the long one) for 2,9k. It has 80.000 km on it and we had to do some minor fixes, but otherwise its in almost perfect condition for its age of 21 years. i will switch the radio to one with CD and Bluetooth support (probably the Blaupunkt Stockholm 400 DAB, because it fits optically too), but otherwise the car is "modern" enough imo. everytime i drive with the driving school's car i forget about all these optional support systems it has, because honestly i dont need them. and for its age, the golf packs a lot of stuff i didnt think it had. So even if its not the fastest first car (which might be a little sad on the german autobahn) it sure is a lot of fun and i just love my golf. 10/10, can recommend the golf as a first car. Even more so the "variant" model, because it has even more storage.
