David Horgan 564 Posted June 20, 2019 I feel sorry for this guy . Bought a Q5 from a guy down south of us and bought it to us for a problem with it cutting out . Injectors were leaking , turbo was shagged , auto box jumping and many other faults we found when it was on site , He spent a fortune with us over a few months we even found out it had a different engine , must of been a moon miles one . Anyway we prompted him to sell it , which he duly did , swapped it for a Caravelle thing with the BI turbo 180 diesel , edition 25 , if you like fancy vans its a nice thing . This morning its in for service , got oil light on , its a fecked engine , yes the bi turbos are shite we know , its the next best thing to a BP oil tanker disaster , oils like grey putty . Wants it serviced to go to France next week oops , going to be the bearer of bed news when he collects it later . Feel sorry for him , I really do . Hope he doesn't move into car trade as he cant choose a good one at all . Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Father is a real VW scene type and she was worried how she would tell her father she'd bought a Clio french piece of shit as her father calls them 1 was bad enough 2 needs a check up 3 she needs sectioning Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
