dbpvr6 0 Posted April 9, 2017 A few cosmetic bits and bobs, but love it already. Loose trim around the windscreen, usual sunroof issue, wheels need a refurb, dents and scratches. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

dbpvr6 0 Posted April 9, 2017 Congrats, I take it from your signature she is DBP in colour?. No it's a green, always wanted a dark burgundy pearl hence picking that name years ago, just never found one in the right place at the right time. Picked it up yesterday and also drove it today, glad I bought it and don't care that it's not my first, second or third choice colour!

dbpvr6 0 Posted April 10, 2017 pretty much the same issue on both sides of the windscreen. Haven't had a proper poke around yet. I see heritage sell replacements, anyone know if they're dead easy to fit? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk I brought a front windscreen set from heritage for when I had mine re-sprayed but the guy who took the windows out said it didn't seem to fit so he cleaned the old one up and put it back! Obviously not an option in your case but if you want it to try your welcome?? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dbpvr6 0 Posted April 12, 2017 Thanks, the pic of the heritage one seems a different profile. I need to have a closer look at the weekend! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dbpvr6 0 Posted April 17, 2017 So... the occasional bit of blue ish smoke much to worry about? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
seanl82 23 Posted April 17, 2017 Same as any other car really, not great tbh. Possible stem seals or piston rings/bore wear. More likely stem seals though. Is it more noticeable when cold, revving, or coming off throttle? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dox 22 Posted April 17, 2017 So... the occasional bit of blue ish smoke much to worry about? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk On a 20 year old car, no. Keep an eye on oil level and monitor what it uses, some newish cars use 1L per thousand miles and this is deemed as acceptable by the manufacturers. Some use twice this amount and still don't qualify for rectification work - not something you would expect from a low mileage Audi? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Is it more noticeable when cold, revving, or coming off throttle? There was no real pattern as to when it happened. Was up to temp, revving or putting foot down doesn't seem to make it happen. First time it did it was going slow Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
