Are there any common problems with the Volkswagen Golf's engine?

I've been considering purchasing a Volkswagen Golf, but I've heard some people have experienced engine issues. Is this a common problem, and if so, what should I be aware of?

In my experience, the engine in my Volkswagen Golf has been very reliable. I've had it for five years now and have never had any issues. However, I have heard from other drivers that there have been some problems with the engine. One potential issue to look out for is the camshaft position sensor failing, which can lead to poor performance and stalling. Make sure to have this checked during regular maintenance.

I've owned multiple Volkswagen Golfs and have never encountered any engine problems. However, I have heard that some models may have faulty fuel pumps, which can cause problems starting the car. If you experience this, I would recommend taking your car to a certified mechanic to have it replaced.

I had a Volkswagen Golf and it ended up needing a complete engine overhaul after only a few years. I was told that this was caused by a faulty oil pump, so I would recommend keeping an eye on your oil levels and getting regular oil changes to prevent this issue.
