Hello everyone,
I've just put a deposit on an 08 plate A4 2.0tdi se B8, multitronic, but there's a niggle.
The garage said they will sort a few little jobs on it, brake pad warning light, broken rear coil spring, give it a service, and check out a tinny irrattic rattle, which appears to be coming from behind the engine.
I started it from cold, and it was there, not very bad, couldn't hear it with the bonnet down, but noticeable slightly when it was lifted.
took it out for a test drive, and it drove like a dream. Got back, lifted the bonnet, and no irrattic rattle. It was gone. On tickover, putting a few revs on, nothing.
Ive never owned an Audi before, couldn't afford one, (thanks csa), so it is my dream car, and I'm not sure it even has a DMF, but I don't want to get caught with my pants down.
The seller said they will 'check it out', can't see them repairing it though if it's going to be expensive.
So I'm asking you Audi guru's out there, what you think? Could it be DMF or flywheel? Or something else?
Am I being over cautious or am I right?
Im paying £5250 for it, and getting a silver warranty wise 12 month warranty with it for £150.
Any replies would be greatfully received, thank you.
