Things to check when buying a 1.6 TDI CAY
Polo 1.6 TDI
Happy foruming, I'm thinking of buying a 1.6 TDI CAY Polo for around 800k. I can't decide whether to buy it with a setup or stock. If bought with a setup, what problems could arise? Or at current costs, should one buy it set up, or buy stock and do the setup myself? What chronic issues could there be either way and what should I look out for when buying? I await your comments, thanks in advance

Translated from TurkishI don't know about a car with a setup, I also have a 1.6 Tdi Caddy, it runs quite well without a tune or setup. If you're buying one without a setup, the maintenance history and mileage matter, but if you buy one with a setup you need to have everything checked thoroughly and set aside money for problems that will come up afterward.
Translated from TurkishGet a Stage 1 tune done, go for it - I have a 105hp 1.6 CAY engine manual B7 Passat, when I first got it, it felt like it barely moved; with the Stage 1 tune it became 140hp and the car got a lot more relaxed.
Translated from TurkishSince your Passat is heavy, mine's probably the 105hp CAY engine too, and it goes pretty well.
