I drove an '01 2.3t wagon for 10 years and had alot of problems in the first 40k miles, but these cars obviously have survived that. Presumably the DI cassette has been replaced in these cars, but you should make sure the one in the car is one of the acceptable later models. Sounds like the PCV is OK (mine failed twice). My turbo also failed at about 40K miles, and this was pretty common in those cars. My car had alot of body roll and alot of pepole upgraded the suspensions, but you can evaluate that. Good luck!
