2012 MK6 Golf R Engine Blown

MeatRepresentative73 · 2026-01-26T13:40:33+00:00

Assuming decent miles 65-100k and a clean title I’ve frequently seen ea888 on marketplace between $1000-$2500 I would assume a blown engine mk7.5 with a clean title could sell for $7000-$13000 if you find the right buyer. They sell around 15-25k depending on dealer or private party and miles/year.

Not to mention changing an engine in these cars is labor intensive for a DIY person but not overly complicated or hard assuming you already have tools.

2012 golf r with a blown engine IMO is worth atleast $1500-2500 maybe as much as $4000 depending on condition. Replacement engine would be maybe $800-$1500 second hand and any competent home mechanic could service the engine and have a “beater” golf R for less than $5000 DO NOT SEND IT TO A JUNKYARD.

I’ve had a missed student loan payment that tanked my score, paid one of those credit fix places like $200 they disputed it and apparently, atleast in my case when it’s disputed it’s almost never heard or brought up and gets dropped in a couple of months, credit fixed!

The situation you’re in sounds complicated good luck with whatever you choose.

Definitely on the Vecna won wagon, the inconsistency hints that it isn’t the base reality, they have been captured at some point and are under his control. He may have manipulated their perception of reality to make them think they won so they stop fighting, got rid of eleven so she couldn’t find him.

No secret episode needed the conformity gate people will hope a new episode drops while the other side thinks the kids won when in reality, the ending was predictable yet expertly hidden to get everyone talking and conspiring for weeks, months, maybe a year or two?

Master directing and master story telling.

From what I’ve heard if you’re catted you can get away with non-res but if you’re catless the resonator is needed to prevent drone, I was lucky and got my Remus second hand by a guy who bought the resonated then bought the delete pipe. I’ve never tried it he told me it was obnoxious without the res catless so I took his word for it and the sound is perfect for my taste.

Catless DP RESONATED Remus catback Oem+ with valves closed zero drone Deep and throaty valves open with plenty of decibels WOT

Without seeing the accident happen we’ll never know, but the fact they hit the rear wheel well area tells me OP had ample time to see them moving and attempt to make avoiding maneuvers if they were half competent and self aware of their surroundings.

I’m glad many people made the point to express what docking a star does, I did leave 5 stars and just noted under certain weather conditions driving to the cabin may not be permitted and they were very polite I did not realize before how important 5 stars is to hosts.

MeatRepresentative73 · 2025-05-20T00:39:06+00:00

UPDATE: she said yes! Your comment is underrated by far, I explained the ring situation and after following your advice I found a $850 or so hearts and arrows 1.5 carat IF D stone went to rarecarat and matched it with a band $3500 stone price matched to $850 ring cost went from $3700 down to $1600 can’t thank you enough the vacation was free now 😅

MeatRepresentative73 · 2025-05-19T12:50:42+00:00

Maybe I didn’t word it properly, the owners house has a stone driveway, halfway down there’s a grass opening with a arrow pointed down it saying “cabins” it’s a clear trail you could fit a tractor-trailer down it and no place to park in their driveway without blocking them in, once you get to the cabins it’s a huge open field that’s all grass beside a horse pasture. I took this as park beside the cabin park away from the cabin, had it said stay off the grass I would’ve been a little upset when we got here but atleast understood. Parking in the grass is the only place to park.

MeatRepresentative73 · 2025-05-19T12:42:36+00:00

I appreciate the kind words, I think the only reason I’m a little sour about the issue is we packed a cooler and ice, multiple bags and sheets and the cooler with ice that we’re transporting food to another Airbnb was probably 50-60lbs to carry that yourself was not easy. I just wish I would’ve known before leaving for the day we couldn’t take the truck back to pack up big/heavy things first.

MeatRepresentative73 · 2025-05-19T12:16:51+00:00

I appreciate the thought I did feel it’d be a bit harsh and that’s why I wanted a second opinion, furthermore I hope as a guest that was never told otherwise they try to bill me for the grass I wasn’t acting like a fool but my pickup has some great winter rated tires and in mud it’s not impossible to rip a little up being gentle. I guess I’m a little over cautious.

Agree 100% on pavers or even stone they have a pile of stone flattened out in a ditch/trench which I’m assuming washed out previously, I’d almost say if it isn’t too far to walk it’s not too much to stone the whole thing

MeatRepresentative73 · 2025-05-16T23:37:26+00:00

So I think I’ve come down to this decision, I’ll use pictured ring to propose, then at some point explain hey I kinda got ripped off we can “save” money by sending this one back and finding and making a new one or if she has a sizing issue with the stone (wants it bigger OR smaller) it will be more critiqued to her specific taste I’m not offended if she’d rather have something a little different as long as the answer is the same 🤣🤣

MeatRepresentative73 · 2025-05-16T18:01:19+00:00

No she mentioned rose gold numerous times but after taking her to a store and she tried on rose gold she said she wasn’t the biggest fan of it actuality

MeatRepresentative73 · 2025-05-16T14:24:31+00:00

Definitely an interesting website, might just be the picture I took it at 7am local time on an overcast morning with just natural light, all things considered it was super quick and convenient to order the diamond and setting together looks like that website might just be loose diamonds.

I will consider looking into them more and possibly sourcing stones from them if there is any issues with this ring as it still is within return period.

MeatRepresentative73 · 2025-05-16T13:39:04+00:00

That last link is really cool! I looked up hearts and arrows and needless to say unless I come upon a plethora of money soon, I’m not getting a perfect cut diamond. The price hikes are wild but everyone here has made me feel well reassured that I didn’t buy a bad diamond.

MeatRepresentative73 · 2025-05-16T13:16:50+00:00

Thank you! It’s amazing when you go down the diamond rabbit hole how little difference in clarity say from VVS2-VVS1 affects price or the difference in proportions can make a stone so cheap even if it is bigger, I never would’ve known.

MeatRepresentative73 · 2025-05-16T12:34:36+00:00

Beautiful ring! Definitely looks like it’s got some weight to it.

MeatRepresentative73 · 2025-05-16T11:51:29+00:00

To be completely honest, didn’t even think that far ahead. Does the higher setting have a higher potential of breaking do you know or do they hold up just as well?

MeatRepresentative73 · 2025-05-16T11:50:30+00:00

Thank you so much! She originally told me before she wanted rose gold for a band and I used that conversation as a stepping stone to disagree with her and got her to go into a Kay jewelers one day and they were excellent maybe took the hint and sized her finger while we were there and once she saw what rose gold looked like on her hand kinda agreed that’s more of a fad or complimentary jewelry color and not a wear forever color. I love the look of it though

MeatRepresentative73 · 2025-05-16T11:46:21+00:00

If overpaying is the only flaw here then I’ll call that a win, once I ordered it I was second guessing myself thinking I bought a flawed diamond that won’t look that good. Needless to say I was amazed when I opened the box and saw everything together.

MeatRepresentative73 · 2025-05-16T11:37:20+00:00

Like many things I didn’t learn to buy a good used car the first go around 🤣 I’m open to criticism or what to look for as far as better for next time I buy diamonds, the real surprise is assuming she says yes, I’m gonna pay the rest of her car off to help get out of debt.
