Re: On the lookout for an R

Yes I saw that and if it were manual I’d have bought it. The missus wants manual again. I’ve got DCT on my M3 and like it. Hers is a seized 2.0tsi so looking for an R which I think has a different engine variant

On the lookout for an R

As the title suggests I’m on the lookout for an R. Must be:

2.0l
Manual
Viper Green
Not to old. Maybe no later than 6 years
Not to many miles. 60,000 miles max

Can’t see any on the internet. Appreciate someone letting me know if they know of one.

Seized 2.0 tsi engine

Hi, I normally spend some time on a M3 forum but yesterday we encountered a problem with my wife’s 2009 2.0 tsi that has done 110k Miles. After breaking down out on the road the engine appears seized and thus I suspect that it has fallen foul to the timing chain tensioner issue. I’ve had some quotes...
