Hello !
Just bought a '53 plate B6 avant 2.5tdi Quattro auto SE in great condition, 170k miles but great history and new cams/belt fitted 20k miles ago - hopefully no issues there !
Anyway, is there anything I should be looking out for engine/box/quattro wise after I collect the car at the weekend ?
e.g is it wise to clean/delete the EGR system and clean the VNT turbo etc., how would I know if injection pump problems will crop up etc. etc.
Just want to keep it looking and running good. Hopefully it won't be too expensive to run fuel wise, I've just come from a MK5 Golf GTI so as long as it's no worse than that i'll be happy (26-28MPG in town, 32-35MPG long runs).
I'll get some pics up after the weekend !
