Think there's a mistake in the mileage on listing; says 87 but odo shows 89.

Thank you for flagging this in the copy, this has now been updated.

We don't have a buy now price during an auction I'm afraid, however the guide price on this car is £8,000 - £12,000. Reserves are typically set at the lower end or just under guide prices.

Hi

What was the reason for -

" complete cylinder head overhaul to include new head bolts, gaskets, all twenty valves and exhaust valve guides "

considering the car had done such low mileage ?


Thanks

Hi Pegbox77, thank you for your query. The overhaul was carried out as a result of the cambelt failing; all replacement parts were purchased from Audi directly.

Hi,
Can you advise if it’s ever had a haldex service?

Also I note on the rebuild there is a piston ring replacement? Why was this performed if just the top end damaged?

Thanks

Hi raudiduncan,

Thank you for your questions. To my knowledge there hasn’t been a Haldex service carried out, I have kept all of the paperwork for anything performed on the car and can find no reference to it so can only assume it hasn’t.

I am not sure why a piston ring was changed; I had the work carried out by Underwood Automotive who look after my cars and always follow their recommendations when advisable work needs doing.

Thank you for your interest.

George
