Tested
“A Volkswagen Golf with equipment including AC, Bluetooth, cruise control, Isofix and electric windows front for extra comfort. Inspected until March 2027. Note! Due to the car's deficiencies, not all equipment could be function tested. The car is sold as a repair object and must be towed from the facility.”
The Tested range is a wide selection of used cars which, depending on their age and mileage, may require some maintenance and servicing, as well as possible repairs. However, each vehicle is unique with its own history, so it is important to read the description and any comments in our test to understand its condition.
What do we notice in the Kvd test?
Our vehicle technicians have tested the car on more than 170 points and noted both approved points and eventual remarks. This gives you a good and fair picture of the car.
Since the the car has had a previous owner, some signs of use may be present, which we consider normal wear based on the car’s age and mileage. This is not indicated in the test results, but is a natural part of a used car.
This Volkswagen Golf has the following specifications:

Uneven idle. Glycol filled during test. Unusually high amount of condensation in oil cap. This can be a result of either a leaking cylinder head gasket or a problem with crankcase ventilation. Hoses to the crankcase ventilation look new, possibly previously leaking crankcase ventilation. When replacing, the supposedly clogged crankcase ventilation has not been removed and cleaned, the condensation extends all the way down to the oil filler neck/valve cover. To clean, the valve cover must be removed. Worn multi-belt. Minor oil leakage at the rear of the engine. Oil moisture on both output drive shafts. Blue smoke when accelerating
The drivetrain should work but requires ongoing maintenance and replacement of components. The drivetrain is noisier than on a car that has driven a shorter distance. Traces of oil in the engine compartment are very common and oil consumption is higher than when the car was new. The range on electricity is limited.
