Hi, I'm thinking of buying a used (2014-2017, 40-70k miles) VW Passat Estate 2.0 desiel as first towcar. I'd prefer an automatic or semi automatic rather than the manual but am a bit concerned about the DSG gearbox relability on an older car. Does anyone have any experience of the longer term reliabilty of the Passat DSG for towing?
Also is a second hand DSG likely to be more or less risky than a second hand manual car?
Thanks in advance for any advice
