Is the Touran engine good?

I am in the process of buying a VW Touran and was wondering if they are any good and if they are reliable (electrics as well)? It has a lot of extras that could go wrong. The engine is a 1.9 TDI diesel.

You have picked the most reliable diesel engine. May have dual mass flywheel problems at some time.
