Today im thinking what have I done and I need some advice & encouragement guys. This is my year 2000 A3 1.8T sport it has 130k with FASH. I paid 2K for it with a couple known issues or so I thought. I knew the AC pump needed replacing I also knew it needed discs & pads on the front and a service. Having had it almost a week I now know it needs a lot of extra work and im feeling peed off. Mostly because I didnt pick any of this additional stuff up and Im wondering if there is any point in spending a lot of money to make it perfect. Im not very good with the spanners you see.
On the positive side the engine is so smooth & sweet and I enjoy driving it so I am torn as to what to do for the best ??
The car needs the following work in total:
Cambelt change
AC pump
Front discs & pads
Oil service
Replacement front subframe
Replacement front Bose speakers
Anti roll bar & bushes
small amount of bubbling on roof and at the bottom of drivers door
The car itself
Bubbling paint on the roof
Bubbling paint at the bottom of the door
Front subframe damage
