spook Posted April 13, 2007 Report Share Posted April 13, 2007 I'd like some help buying a 2007 silver S3. The car has done 0 miles. Donations to a total of £30,000 to my Swiss bank account. Thank you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tunbridge Posted April 13, 2007 Report Share Posted April 13, 2007 Just the usual stuff I guess, you can usually tell how well the car has been maintained by looking over it. Just make sure it has been serviced correctly and that the cam belt has been done. The only other major fault I would watch out for is the 6 speed gear box synchromesh. The 2nd gear failed on mine at 40k and I know of another one on here that also failed in a similar way at similar mileage. I believe it is a rare fault but worth keeping an eye out for during a test drive. Good Luck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jamiekip Posted April 13, 2007 Report Share Posted April 13, 2007 Check for clutch master cylinder replacement, coil packs changed and rear anti roll bar bushes replaced too - all common faults. Good luck! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
