Bit of an oldish thread but just wondering, can you use any 5w40 oil? I ask, and this may sound random, but I get trade discount with Vauxhall so can get their oil very cheap so just wondered if that would be fine to use, my thoughts are yes as oil is oil?? I'm looking at getting an A4 Tdi 130...

Yeah, seems so :( I just need a car exactly like that one but with full history and lower miles....lol! Keeping my fingers crossed one comes up soon!

Cheers anyways for trying Another twist is the car's now reappeared on Autotrader at the lower price of £4450 but is suddenly sporting full service history when he only told me a week or so ago the last history went up to Oct 2009...lol!

That'd be good if you wouldn't mind asking as I still really like this car, I did say to the guy that I'd been advised it was a little too much considering its mileage and history, I then saw last night its on Ebay at £4495 which is lower than on his site and Pistonheads. Just been doing some...

I know this is an old thread but I take it the parts are the same for the B6 and B7 chassis? This is just what I needed, thanks for this thread!

Cheers, I'm new to all this haggling business, never done it before...lol!

That's real good advice mate, I will bare that all in mind. I did wonder about phoning them and saying I'll give you X and I'll come get it this weekend and assuming it drives as well as you say I'll buy it and see what they say, then at least I'd know if they'd take my offer before even getting...

Out of interest then, did you sort out a deal before you even saw the car as I presume you didn't go see it twice?? Did you offer them a price over the phone based on you then getting down there, test driving it and being happy with it? My thought is I don't want to travel 100 odd miles and...

Seller got back to me and said nothing to say water pump was done when cambelt was, said there's little receipts for work carried out in last few years as it was company owned and no doubt receipts were kept for account purposes. He said I was more than welcome to contact the garage where the...

So as its a 7yr old car its kinda out of sync with cambelts as it should have had one done in 09 based on age but on mileage it should have had 2 and a 3rd about now as you say. The most frustrating bit is that car is exactly what I want....its just the history thats putting me off, oh, and the...

I've asked about the water pump but awaiting a reply, the cambelt was done in Oct 2009 so is it a milage related thing or an age as I guess they're done every 4 years or so many miles? I have thought about turbo and asked about, my own car would be due a turbo sometime soon so I kinda had to...

Only looking at manuals Its this one Welcome to the R.A Motors Website Says 3 owners but it was the same person twice, registered to their company then to themselves privately

Cheers for the replies. j033y - I think I'm more interested in the 1.9 Tdi as I know its a solid engine and so less to go wrong, also, in the budget I have, there really isn't a huge difference in petrol & diesels, the diesels seem cheaper to insure which did surprise me and they pay less road...

I aren't sure they offer garage services, I think they just sell the car, it is a registered business so it is trade. My thoughts are though that yes the engine's done 73k more and it could be 6 months or there abouts older but for £1500 I could get clutch/DMF done when needed and also have...

Hi, looking to join the Audi A4 fold as I have a baby on the way and need a more practical car than my astra coupe turbo I'm off to look at a 2004 A4 avant 1.9 tdi sport next week assuming its still for sale and wanting some advice please Its on 180,000 miles and hasn't got full service...
