Maybe the timing is out... Check with another garage for 2nd opinion.. VCDs can tell you also i believe..
Agree with Alpesh - the water will be the bungs that need clearing and have filled with rain water
I am wondering why there is a difference between the B6 and B7 1.9TDI with BHP
Is it just a simple turbo swap to upgrade to 130bhp and could it be remapped up to 170bhp?
Thanks again.... :thumbsup:
I did find this from that article
http://www.powermaxengineering.com/index_htm_files/workshop.pdf
Seems that the fix on this is pretty good
Im still stuck...
7k for a 80/90k 2007 B7 and fix = just short of 8k
or
10k for a 100k 2009 B8
This is a tough one
Am i right in thinking that the dealer just did a bodge job or will the Hex shaft only last 50k?
Even with the new 100mm one fitted will that only last 50k also?
I dont mind getting this upgrade done, but every 50k sounds like madness....
and if i was to buy the 07 plate 2.0tdi..... (here is me thinking... :uhm:)
I read that someone in pontifract got his balanceshaft replaced for £600 all in... Maybe that would then give me a sound car?
Cheers for the advise guys
Am i right in thinking that i should look an 09 plate onwards to avoid this issue/dog engine?
Wish i could find a nice 2.7 quattro 07 plate.. but it isnt easy :-)
(really need an avant)
Hi guys/gals
I have a B6 at the moment and looking to change to a 2007 2.0TDI avant
The one i have seen has just short of 100k and the guy is wanting £7500 for it, does that sound about right?
What do i want to be looking out for when i view it and ive read on here about the oil pump/balance...
I too have been looking at changing from my B6 to a B7
Looking to change to an Avant and thought of getting something newer than my 53 plate
I hear/read the balance shaft is a problem right up to 2008 if im not wrong
Not too many of the 1.9 kicking around either
Im in the same boat...
( not getting rid of the dog )
Thinking of this
Allside Dog Car Seat Cover
Not the cheapest, but by far not the most expensive. Seems to be right for the job
