Hi everyone.
Im not exactly new to this forum, but this is my first post.
Ive got a 2002 1.8T, and after reading a lot about the oil sludge problem Im worried about it happening to mine.
I bought it from a trader 7 months ago who serviced it and changed the cambelt and waterpump. As I cant be sure if fully synthetic oil was used Im going to book it in at a local independent garage for an oil / filter change. Question is, as the car is running fine, is it worth doing an engine flush and possibly risk dislodging something nasty ?
One other question; when the boot is open the light inside doesn't come on and nothing shows on the DIS. Any ideas ?
Thanks in advance for any suggestions.
