Yes, I'd avoid it! You have to ask why the current owner is selling it, maybe it's not cheap to fix. Has it been in a crash?
-
You're welcome and no probs at all 😊

About to buy one. What should I look out for?
Steve Q replied to LucyB's topic in Audi A3 (8L) Forum
Have a look to see if the gearbox has been serviced. Check to see if the cambelt and water pump has been changed. Make sure all electrical items work. Check buyers guides on YouTube. -
There you go, thought it would. Going to have this weather till Tuesday I believe.
-
You're welcome. You'll probably find the whole washer system is frozen up too.

3 out of 4 doors not opening in freezing conditions
Steve Q replied to Foxybaker's topic in VAG Com Diagnostic Discussions
Can you hear the doors unlocking when you press the fob? -
Probably £700 ISH.

It's definitely headlight washer. This can be quite normal in these very cold conditions. Don't push them back in as you can break them. Let them go back in on their own once it's warmed up.

Glad you sorted it, well done for the guide as I'm sure it'll help others.

Probably £1k tops if the engine has to come out.

AUDI A5 S LINE 35 TDI - Auto Hold Dis-engaging
Steve Q replied to Aliballibee65's topic in Audi A5 Club
Well if you have a code reader it might show fault codes. But clearly an Audi job. -
AUDI A5 S LINE 35 TDI - Auto Hold Dis-engaging
Steve Q replied to Aliballibee65's topic in Audi A5 Club
It'll need a diagnostic check to see if any fault codes flag up. It could just be a wheel sensor but but usually/in theory there'd be a hold function disabled or similar warning if the car had picked up a problem. see what Edinburgh Audi says. Keep us posted on how you get on. -
That's a great result. Did they just turn off the light?

Hello all, I'm UK based and in need of a new windscreen and I've been in contact with Ricky Evans Motorsport who can supply heated windscreens for the narrow body A6 at £270+ vat. There has to be a minimum of 5 orders, is anyone else interested in a heated windscreen? Their details are: Ricky Evans Motorsport Unit 11, Roman Park Claymore , Tame Valley Ind Est Tamworth Staffs B77 5DQ Tel +44(0)1827283688 email [email protected]

I agree with Cliff. Often 100-150k usually. But you only change them once they start to make a noise etc.
-
Glad you got sorted 🙂
-
True I guess and thanks 🙂
-
It's a big job on an A8 including engine removal
-
Glad you got sorted, I'll be inspecting my subframe once engine is removed.
-
Welcome to the forum you'll find the members on here are a friendly and helpful bunch 🙂
-
Thank you, most definitely but it'll be worth it 🙂 not aiming for too crazy power as it needs to still be useable for road trips etc. Turbo and injectors are good for 280ish
-
You're welcome 🙂
-
Looks stunning! Great pics too 🙂

Funnily enough I've been to see a chap this evening and his workshop who can rebuild my engine with all new internals and skimming the head. Then considering hybrid turbo, upgraded injectors, 4 bar map sensor, straight through exhaust, port/polish head and then a remap. Then looking at upgrading the clutch and dmf.
