Have they got invoices backing up the stamps in the book? Admittedly this may not help much though as it'll be in Japanese. Due to the strict MOT rules in Japan, I will suspect it's had everything done. As I believe everything has to work on a car in Japan for it to pass an mot. Make sure the seller is changing the language to English on all car systems. As this can be an issue otherwise. I see your in Ely, if that's London I'd highly recommend you get the supplying dealer get you a certificate of conformity from VAG as this will help prove the cars emissions regarding ULEZ.

Timing not quite set or out by a tooth.

Glad it's all fixed 🙂 nothing good comes cheap as they say.

Will be too late now to arrange a stand.

Done

Welcome to the forum you'll find the members on here are a friendly and helpful bunch 🙂

If it's been bought from a dealer within the last 30 days then the dealer has the responsibility to fix it FOC or take the car back for a full refund.

Do t worry you won't get sarcastic comments here. I appreciate the struggle to find parts for old audis. I'm having to source parts in Germany for my A6 C5.

Glad you got sorted 🙂

Is it gearbox or diff?

Sorry no one responded. Whstvwas the fix?

You're welcome 🙂 Not a daft question at all. If it were mine I'd change any gaskets whilst the parts a disassembled. You wouldn't want any leaks after you put it back together.

Welcome to the forum you'll find the members on here are a friendly and helpful bunch 🙂 Lovely looking car, le nans died definitely the best one for the A6 C6 in my opinion

I'd recommend a diagnostic check to see if any fault codes flag up

No probs at all, I'm here to help 🙂

I'd recommend trying eBay but including international sellers

Hi Sara, have you looked under the scuttle panel for any blocked water drain holes? Could a pipe for the AC be blocked I wonder? Have you been to a a garage yet to get it locked at?

Welcome to the forum you'll find the members on here are a friendly and helpful bunch 🙂 These guys are supposed to be good: https://clutch-specialists.co.uk/ Or you could try darkside developments, appreciate they mainly specialise in diesels though. Don't forget to look at sach. Will you fit a new duel mass flywheel at the same time?

You're welcome. I think the remap may cost around £500 but that's a hell of a lot cheaper than replacing sensors, tanks etc and you won't have to worry about the adblue system again

In theory it should still pass but you'd best speak to a remap company that specialise in it. I don't know any personally though

Just messaged you on FB marketplace

Bilbao or Santander I bet. If it's ordered new then your Audi dealer should be able to find out

You're lucky. I'd still recommend a gearbox oil change to be on the safe side

Looks great 👍
