I'm very close to finalising a deal to getting a lovely Audi a3 2.0 Diesel 170bhp, 2009.
It's currently at 62,000 miles and has literally just had the cam belt and water pump replaced.
With this, can I expect the car to be running fine for the foreseeable future? Everything else seemed perfect, brand new tyres, brake pads, discs seem fine. Gear box seemed smooth. FSH (missed one service between 33k to 52k) but has been served at 61k.
Any comments about the engine?
One issue which was a little strange was, basically the little Wheel warning light is permanently on (a little yellow ish) even when the ignition if off. Very dim light is the best way to describe it. I turned the battery on to compare the colour when the light is on, and its 100% isn't on. I just found find this a little strange. The seller said he got it looked at and there were no issues with the steering and I can confirm this at least from the test drive.
The only thing that is putting me off is the fact of buying 59'Reg car. Should this not be an issue?
Thanks
