Hi Guys, I have just bought a 2003 (52) 1.9 TDI Avant 130 SE among other issues I have found that sometimes when I put my foot down the car doesn't boost but if I let off then reapply the accelerator it will then boost, has anyone come across something like this before? Thanks Ben

Hi guys. I have just bought a 52 plate A4 TDI and when you pull the dipstick the plastic sleeve comes out with the dipstick, is this an issue? Best way to fix? Thanks Ben

Good evening all, Tonight I bought myself a 2002 (52) A4 1.9TDI SE Avant for the grand total of £400, It has no MOT a rusty front arch, a dent in the boot lid and some laquer peel. It is booked in Monday for an MOT and the previous MOT has no advisories so fingers crossed for me please!!! I haven't actually seen it on person due to a possible head gasket failure on my MR2 turbo on my way to view so had to rope my parents into viewing it for me, dad took it for a drive and said if I didn't want it he was going to buy it so I was happy for him to put down a deposit. According to the PO it needs 2 tyres and wipers all round and possibly a wheel bearing so we shall see, my dad did mention that the dipstick had come out of its seal so wasn't causing a vacuum?? Is this an issue? Is there anything else I need to look out for when I finally get my hands on it? Interior is tatty so I will be sorting that out and I will need a new wing and boot lid, it will also be having a service and the cambelt changing as there isn't any history with it as they guy did it all himself so I would rater be safe than sorry! Plans are EGR blank, decat and a remap any other things I should look at? Any help welcomed! Thanks, Ben
