What to check on this one at 55,000 km
- On a diesel, have the turbo, the injectors and (where fitted) the DPF checked: those are the expensive failures.
- Dual-clutch (DCT): creep in traffic and pull away on a slope on the test drive. A judder or shudder at low speed, or a gearbox warning light, points to clutch-pack wear. Ask whether any clutch or mechatronics work was done under warranty.
