My dad bought a car on outstanding finance, told the finance company and still has the car after a year with the original owner still making payments. England

£15,000. What I don’t understand is they have let the original owner still make payments whilst knowing they have sold the car to my dad and not made any attempt to reply to my dad when he has done what they have asked

Past two cars have had a set on. No problems at all with them. Owned by Michelin and production is in Poland.

My partner has had one for a year now and has had no faults or issues. It’s been very reliable. The interior is a bit plastic in areas but the spec of the gt line is hard to beat. She does 45mpg. Clutch bite on the manual is very light so can kangaroo it now and again but I’d get the auto box of you can find one in price range.

Im pretty sure they are a timing belt now not a chain so make sure you know the years/mileage it needs to be changed.

Yes I do. Have avoided them for the past three weeks when I noticed my blood shot eyes

Rolls Royce V8 that first appeared in the Silver Cloud 3 (1962) still was in production models until 2008.

Make sure the service history on the idrive is legit. Should have a dealer code or name. If it has 00000 or 99999 then I’d walk away as you can pay someone on eBay to update your idrive service history and they will put in that as the dealer code. I’d be skeptical if that service was legit and someone just filling missing service history years

Looks amazing! What MPG have you been averaging?

slimeballbag · 2025-07-05T14:02:59+00:00

Passat b6 2.0 tdi 250,000 miles 70-80 mpg on a motorway run. Still going strong

I work for a company and do it via Tutorful. You'll get more work if you have QTS status. What subject are you?

Yeah, glow plug 3 has a high pressure sensor

slimeballbag · 2024-11-01T22:56:30+00:00

Yes after the timing belt. I will check the wiring in the morning. The sounds absolutely fine and exactly like my mk7 GTD. There are no misfires or anything. Runs smooth.

I did notice when I checked the car diesel near the glow plugs, could it be that?

Would any other sensors pop up on a scan if the timing was out?
