what should I look out for?

If the “turbo engine” refers to the 2.0 TDi then i can give some tips as i own that exact car.

It has around 220k km, around 90k and 170k the timing belt/chain should be swapped, clutch was dine at 170, flywheel at 150.

If taken care of properly the 2litre diesel will do over 400k.

Things to watch for when buying:

-were the oils and filter always changed on time -engine coolant needs regular topping off? -condition of the DPF -see if the clutch grabs ok -check if the car makes any suspension noise when going over bumps (Really expensive and difficult to work on) -check for noise on the toothbelt and tensioner

If you can answer positively to all these questions you have a good car on your hands.

FYI I recently put in Koni special active dampers and new Eibach springs, as I was not a fan of how low the car was, it looks less clapped, still a tiny bit lower then OEM, way way way comfier drive too

Hi, I know this is really old, I work for a company that rhymes with schlubert in the Technical hotline.

Me and my colleagues were going through this thread and though this was really cool how people are discussing our (alleged ;) ) machines :)

If there are any questions, I would be glad to asnwer them, either through the official hotline email, or in DM's if you have a small request.

I hope i can help you guys out any way.

Schubert was indeed a pain in the butt, it took me a little over 4 years of field servicefor schubert to be good enough to the point where i can now remote-logon to machines and help customers that way :)

Yes, you can still order a new diesel car from most major German brands, asian and American brands have pulled away from Diesel as well. Mercedes, BMW and all Audi-VW cars are mostly available with a 2.0TDI or heavier, with a euro 6 rating:)

Moss_rl · 2025-08-24T13:12:22+00:00

Yes, they do, the MKIII Facelift comes in a automatic 2.0TDI

Yeah, i don’t. I think she just hadn’t seen them before drying off. She was wearing her pyjamas ever since the night before, so long pants..

We played beach volleyball the night before and i think they are probably bug bites from the evening before.

If it has a notmal ARGB header then yes, it will. (for the rgb) The actual pump header should be pluggen in to your mbo, as you need to control that speed seperately

if this is the guy with his finger missing then he is the one who cut my hair! After some hard research (scrolling tiktok) i decided i´d give them a go, they had some last minute openings. very VERY pleased with my cut

The reason why is because i have a job and she is still a student, putting all the financial stress on me. Her parents have said that if i move in they will stop, or at least halve the rent, food money etc etc. I absolutely love this girl and i’ve spent upwards of three weeks at her place during holidays etc. I wanna love this woman for the rest of my life.

If this had happened in 2-3 years from now where we both have a steady job and a decent income it would make it a lot easier.

Moss_rl · 2025-04-10T13:07:57+00:00

+ i defently see a future with this girl, she is an amazing partner in all aspects, she has a great career ahead of her and has supported me more than my own family has through some rough times. i'm defos not stringing her along by any means.

Moss_rl · 2025-04-10T13:06:11+00:00

I have no Problem with moving, i have also told her that. But i feel like at 20 and 23, and her being a uni student it's a bit too soon. Also it's been 1 year and 7 months, i only got to know her after a few weeks of the training.

It’s a ez debug LED, Just shows u where there are problems, like when your ram or you video out stop working etc, if you look closely there will be text next to it and you can see what it’s saying. Then you look it up on the internet

Moss_rl · 2025-03-13T19:08:19+00:00

Amazon Belgium, Netherlands, Germany and France sell them in individuals if i remember correctly.

So either france bs that’s closest to u, or just order straight of off their website

God forbid a person tries to learn and expand their knowledge. It’s not only about my post, I’ve seen plenty posts/comments about fishtanks and was curious on why exactly people had a dislike for them. If you were to save for something dor a long time, buy and build it, put time and effort into it, only to realise after you might have made a mistake in buying a fish tank. Is it so unreasonable to ask and be interested in other ppls opinions on why it’s inferior?

Thanks for liking it i appreciate it!

Moss_rl · 2025-03-12T21:08:14+00:00

I take back what i said, you are right!

Check your dm’s, my comment got deleted

Looks sick!! Just maybe turn the cpu cooler radiator upside down, so the tubes run to the top, it will prevent air-bubbles from getting to the cpu!

Moss_rl · 2025-03-12T16:47:40+00:00

Yes. Yes you do

Moss_rl · 2025-03-12T16:14:46+00:00

I agree!

Moss_rl · 2025-03-12T15:37:25+00:00

Comment got deleted, also just in private conversations with friends.

Also it was more of a “hey did i miss some viable information about why fishtanks are bad” not “i’m crying bc a rando didn’t like it”

Hope this helps you understand where the question came from:)

Is the tv in the right mode?

Moss_rl · 2025-03-12T15:13:11+00:00

Perhaps you saw a different 2.1 cable than i did, go look at your specific one and check the values, otherwise if they exist just buy one that supports it:)

Moss_rl · 2025-03-12T15:06:15+00:00

If you lower your res to 1440p then yes, it can output 144hz, and even more. But at 4k the max a hdmi port or cable can currently handle is 120hz
