BHPian RajeevRaj <\/strong>recently shared this with other enthusiasts.<\/p>\n End of November, my Vento 1.2 TSI DSG completed 10 years. Thought it would be a good time to post an update and also look back at the journey with the Vento over the last 10 years. This is the longest I have held a car and it is the longest by a huge margin. The good thing is that I still enjoy the car tremendously and hence hope to retain it for quite some time more. First question on everyone’s mind maybe: How is the notorious DQ200 DSG? Yes, it is still on the original gearbox. Fingers crossed for this to continue.<\/p>\n Intent here is to do a recap of these 10 years, but at the same time keep it short enough to not bore the readers too much.<\/p>\n Where it all began<\/strong><\/p>\n It was mid 2013. I had changed 3 cars in 6 years. Was driving an pre-owned SX4 and at some point decided I wanted an automatic car. That whole story is documented in this post.<\/p>\n Short version:<\/strong><\/p>\n Snap from the PDI<\/p>\n Delivered and ready to roll<\/p>\n 2014-The First Year- Peaceful and exciting, the Honeymoon period<\/strong><\/p>\n The lovely reverse sensor indication with the distance in cm. Those were the days where the vehicle hardware from VAG pretty much had support for all these things.<\/p>\n 2015- The 2nd year-23,000km<\/strong><\/p>\n On one of our trips- Mettupalayam-Kotagiri route.<\/p>\n Ready for an event.
