    A fantastic review thank you Thomas. My Caddy is 4 years old. I’d definitely recommend getting a reversing camera as it’s a big vehicle not easy to see when reversing. My camera was retro fitted and is fantastic. A really nice driving profile being high up on the road and looking over cars. I have the 1.6tdi which is very economical. Disadvantage is being high sided, it’s very vulnerable in even the slightest wind. Generally need to drive at 60mph as I live on a windy coast in Northern Scotland but can do 70mph on a good day! I’d say it lacks in power in general and a 2.0 engine would have be a better choice for me. Good for tall people like myself. My Caddy has been converted with an electric boot and ramp so I can drive from my electric wheelchair.

    The vw caddy sells itself even with minor flaws as it has a huge following and retains its value very well.

    Hi Thomas,
    First of I like your videos very much. I wanted to share my VW experience her with you guys.
    I have a 2009 Golf 6 GT 1.4 with DSG. I live in Hong Kong so the weather is quite extreme. Very hot and humid. Lots of traffic and close driving. My Golf has only run 88.900km since 2009 and it had already some major failures.
    End of 2015 one engine sensor broke and had to be replaced with new part from Germany. Cost for the sensor was around 500,- Euro. Then the cooling system of the car broke. Pump and belt had to be replaced as well. That with the sensor cost me around 1500,- Euro.
    Also since I have the car electronics keep playing up.
    Electronic side mirrors don't fold and freeze on a regular basis and the entertainment unit will not recognize my iPod and wont play any music.
    Now the latest problem after all this is with the DSG. It feels very rough especially when accelerating from stand still in traffic like for example at a round about. There is sometimes a big jerk when I accelerate harder. Also the DSG was already replaced by VW Hong Kong in 2012 free of charge but it feels exactly the same as before. Maybe they didn't replace it and just pretend they did to safe money?!
    I bought this car because I had the impression German cars are more reliable but that is clearly not the case. I am quite disappointed with my Golf to say the least. Who cares about the solid door noise when the car keeps having real expensive problems? Also I hear from friends that Audi's don't do well in Hong Kong either.
    My next car will be Japanese since they have a better reliability score of late and parts are cheaper to get fixed or replaced. Thinking about a Mazda CX-5.
    I really don't like cars that have so many issues since I am quite young and don't wont to spend so much money on silly repairs and apparently Japanese cars are more suited for the Asian climate.
    Btw I also really like that you talk about the whole leather seat thing. I never thought about it before and I am happy you made me aware of it. I will try not to have leather in my new cars from now on. :)

    Thank you for your test review on the Caddy Alltrack. It seems quite a good allrounder, except for the Sat Nav position. I cannot believe VW would be so inconsiderate and fit the screen in such a dangerous position, when, they could very easily incorporate a folding screen on the top of the dash, sharing the space of the top glovebox! Very simple solution, and with the size of that glove box, they could fit a huge screen that can be used for entertaining the kids, when the car is not in motion!

    DSG7 is a real disaster for VW group. Every, but every DSG7 gear suffers from multiple issues. Here in Israel VW lost in a class trial and was forced to pay compensations to each car owner.

    Today, while browsing UA-cam, I came across this video and I was very happy because I followed it with pleasure, it was a channel, but since there is no subtitle option in the video, I cannot understand what is being said. My English is not good.😔

    @karlr8693 8 років тому +2

    you're right: the navigation system is way too low. You have to look far down, Mercedes and BmW and Audi get it right to put the display on top of the dashboard

  • @jamesrothwell8693
    @jamesrothwell8693 8 років тому +4

    I've never understood why manufacturers use these sort of citcuirts to show a vehicles off-road ability. It's hardly strenuous and I'm sure the Caddy could do a lot more.
    Even Toyota did the same thing with the latest Landcruiser, it was just a car park with some steep hills and a couple of logs to drive over.

  • @ast5515
    @ast5515 8 років тому

    The DSG revs the engine quite high sometimes. When you floored it on the motorway, the RPM jumped up to 4000. But the torque disappears after 3000, so why is that?

    • @autogefuehl
      @autogefuehl  8 років тому

      +ast5515 When torque suddenly jumps down it might have to do with the sailing function

    • @ast5515
      @ast5515 8 років тому

      ***** That's not what I mean. Diesels run out of power above 3000 RPM and that's what I mean by the torque disappearing. I think there is no point shifting above 3000 RPM in a diesel for a DSG. For a manual, there is, because you lose more time by shifting than by not having maximum power.

    • @Luleliluli
      @Luleliluli 6 років тому

      ast5515 Because it's the fastest way to rev up the engine into the max torque range. It's like driving in long gear for low fuel composition and having to accelerate fast, you go to a lower gear and step on it. If Thomas had stepped a little less on the gas pedal the transition would have been more progressive, more in the way you expected.

    +Autogefuhl yes Thomas, for example VW Passat B8 or Skoda Superb both with the same engine 2.0 TDI 150 hp and DSG, but without 4Motion doesn't have Adblue tank, that's why I'm curious, when I choose 4Motion system, it means automatically an AdBlue tank added ?

    i have watch meny car videos where they talk about torque but i have never understand what torque does and what's the difference between horsepower and torque. can someone may be helpful and explain ? :)

    • @autogefuehl
      @autogefuehl  8 років тому +2

      +Hundra14Kronor torque measures the turning force, rpm measures the rounds per minute (revolving speed), horsepower is the overall power rate. So I am not rocket scientist, but that should be horsepower = torque * rpm

    • @hundra14kronor67
      @hundra14kronor67 8 років тому +1

      tahats som intresting stuf rigth there. if i drive an 300 hp 100 nm torque car how can i as an driver fele the difrens if i drove an 300 hp 300 nm torque car ?

    • @autogefuehl
      @autogefuehl  8 років тому +1

      +Hundra14Kronor What you feel as a driver is the torque, as far as I understood it, you can never feel horsepower :)

    Good video but that's one rather goofy looking car. Like a Japanese Kei car with its boxy narrow shape and tiny wheels for its size. And with the big gap between the Tupperware wheel arches and the wheels itself gives it the appearance of someone who's pulled up their pants way too high. Almost Urkel like.
