    the gf got herself a mk5 1.9 tdi about six months ago, its an 04 reg car so i would expect the odd thing here and there to wear out.

    question is, are there any well known common faults we should look out for?
    are there any simple mods that would improve the driveability like remap etc?

    remap or a plug in chip, makes a big change.
