Serious risks
- Oil pump drive failure: Hex bolt on oil pump can shear off, destroying engine.
- Camshaft wear: Cam lobes wear prematurely.
- Injector failure: PD injectors expensive and prone to failure.
- Car is 19 years old — expect age-related wear: rubber seals, bushings, water pump, AC compressor

Additional notes
- VW_PUMPE_DUSE_2.0 engine has known reliability problems — assess carefully
- Vehicle is 15+ years old. Age-related issues: rubber seals/hoses degrade, electrical connectors corrode, suspension bushings wear. Not specific to any engine, but expect €500-1,500/year in age-related maintenance beyond normal service items.
- Any car with 200k+ km requires extra scrutiny. At this mileage: suspension components are worn (bushings, ball joints, shocks), seals and gaskets are hardened, electrical connectors corrode, and major components approach end-of-life. For luxury cars (BMW, Mercedes, Audi) the cost of 200k+ km maintenance can exceed the car's value. Always get a pre-purchase inspection (PPI) and budget 15-25% of purchase price for immediate maintenance.
- Diesel car from before 2018 with very low mileage suggests city-only use — DPF is likely clogged or has been removed (illegal). Check DPF status and EGR condition.
