Our Recommendation
Our Recommendation
For the 45 TFSI, preventative replacement of the water pump and thermostat housing is highly advised before catastrophic failure occurs. For the 45 TDI, a reconditioned engine is a strong investment given the high retained value of the Allroad chassis, but ensure the specialist verifies the AdBlue and DPF systems are fully functional to prevent repeat issues.
