What VW TDI cars are reliable?

My wife got a brand new 2002 jetta 1.8 gas turbo car. That car was the biggest POS I have ever been around.

Week two Motor locks up
6 months Turbo is trashed
1 year new tranny
Warranty goes out and the problems keep coming. Until it was finally sold.

My mom had a Beetle TDI (dont know the year probably 02-04) it was in the shop so many times my mom finally decided to sell it then it got totaled.

I hear a bunch of people loving the TDI'S and I would like to consider getting one for a commuter car but what years ect do I stay away from? I hear the auto trannys suck but that is about all I know.
