Hi,
I've recently purchased a audi a4 2.0 tdi estate in a private sale, it's seemed to drive ok on test drive but since then notice some issues which I feel could be serious. It has done 177k.
Issues I have noticed are
1.) car has poor mpg only getting 37mpg on 70mph 200 mile motorway run
2.) car has quite bad vibration from engine at between 1800 and 2000 revs little vibration before or after. The whole car shakes for this period but accelerated as I would expect after this to red line.
3.) when car started from cold cloud of blue smoke come from exhaust only lasts 30 seconds or so and no smoke when warm
4.) engine on idle seems to have a slight wobble which comes and goes.
Any help with this would be much appreciated thanks pete
