Phone VW UK with your reg, they will tell you if its had the injector recall work- 0800 333 666. The engine codes effected were as follows- BKP, BMA, BWV, BVE, BMR, BUZ. It wont have a DPF (diesel particulate filter) as its to old. The troublesome oil pump drives effected BMR and BKP engines. My advise would be to buy one from mid 2008 onwards as this uses a Comon rail engine and is far better than the 2 litre PD unit used in the 'B6' version from 2006 unitl mid 2008. The two types can be told apart by looking at just the plastic engine cover, the CR unit has slanted style manifold type moldings whereas the older PD unit has the moldings straight on the cover. Either that or go for the older B5.5 (2001-2006) although its getting harder to find one with respectable milage. I tow with one (1350KG) and its a fantastic tow car .
