I bought my 2002 S3 in light silver about 2 months ago. It's wasn't perfect, but it's getting better.
Faults / Jobs at purchase
Dent and crease on driver's door and rear quarter panel.
Aerial base gasket perished
Climate control panel, headlight switch, door pillar, Radio controls worn to plastic.
Dodgy water temperature reading, one minute it was reading 90c then it dropped to 30c.
Squeaky / rattly door
Found out car is mapped already, but logging shows it's running lean. Will need to get it re-done but someone who knows what they're doing.
To do:
Fit replacement cilmate control panel
Fit headlight switch
Spray door pillar covers and radio ?
New oil pickup pipe, Gasket sealant, Oil filter and oil
Mobil 5w-30 ESP fully synthetic
1m of 4mm silicone vacuum tube to replace some tupperware (N275)
2 x Pagid rear brake discs
2 x Pagid front brake discs
1L ATE Super Blue brake fluid
Fit Cayman, Boxster S calipers (need to buy brackets, bolts and brake lines)
New LCR top mounts and bearings
Fit constant 12v feed
Fitted
Genuine CTS, clip and grommet (fitted)
4 x Continental SportContacts (to replace the Sava tyres !) (fitted)
New Audi rubber mats for the front (original mats had worn through and worn the interior carpet at the heel)
Replaced aerial base gasket
Cabin air filter
Bosch air filter
Forge 007P DV (replaced Bailey Motorsport one)
4 x NGK Iridium BKR6EIX
