You've not made the video public mate so it's asking for a password.

There should be the slightest up and down movement but no movement in and out...

as dave said, very slight up and down which is taken up by oil when running, but any in and out what so ever and id send it back

 

[alistair666]

bit of a long story realy

didnt say before but up untill half hour ago i had this turbo listed on ebay, didnt say before because i didnt want to be see as advertising it
got it about a year ago from a well known member from this site. didnt realy think the play was a problem untill every interested buyer asked if i could check it

anyone want a knackerd ko3s???

 

[quattro1]

if the price is right

 

[alistair666]

open to offers

Like said, you can get it refurbed for an hybrid..it will save you a few hundred than buying an hybrid out right.....there is little else you can do with it, put it back on ebay as spares or repair?
