Just been to look at a 2.0 t fsi..... absolutely mint car, but a couple things don't add up......
He has bought the car for his wife. Flown the length of the UK to pick it up,driven it back down and she doesn't like it so after 3 weeks he's selling it. He says he bought it froma garage, and they didn't make him sign the log book, so it is still registered in the previous owners name? ???how has he taxed the car etc. Has he bought it from auction?
Checked myhid and it is insured so that would cut out a traders policy?
Any ideas welcome! !!!????? Don't want to spend 7k on a car that stinks.
Also looking over the engine I focused on the oil pump area,sounds like the chain has a very slight tick. Equal around 4 times a second. Is this standard and just the noise of the chain going round or is this a sign of the dreaded oil pump drive chain tensioner on its way out? Cost of replacement along with pick up pipe roughly? Car is fwd so no sub frame an I right.
All help appreciated
