From what I have read in the short time I’ve been on here I assume you are awaiting for someone to talk you out of saving PYXi??
I suspect we will be reading about the amazing turnaround shortly...
Well, the only person that'll do that is me, but so far ... so O.K.. Early days though.
Here's the to-do list, and that's before I discover anything more:
External valet: clay, machine polish, paint touch up, Zymol Carbon plus a hydrophobic coating.
Internal wet valet.
Full service including timing belts and serpentine belt.
Engine bay detail.
Faux flaps.
Touch in Soft-Touch where poss.
Recondition keys (rubbers are worn).
Investigate and rectify power steering NW (done, details to follow).
Ditto alternator light.
Ditto poor running.
Ditto EML up.
Ditto ABS light up.
Ditto pad warning up.
Sort semi-seized gear-shift.
Driver's door check-strap rifle shot sound (will use passenger strap from other FSI)
Front passenger door central locking NW
Dent in rear nearside door.
Scratches to rear bumper.
Paint suspension where practicable and needed.
Refurb all wheels.
Scan with VCDS.
Install Pro-Boost ECU (possibly: it's here).
Investigate and rectify clonk at rear.
Ditto rattle from front.
Ideally AC service (if I buy an old AC recharge machine).
Poss exhaust blow? Investigate.
Replace two tyres.
A2OC plate holders / stickers, 'GB' No. plate delete.
EDIT: forgot this: replace rear bump stops / damper shrouds (ordered).
Plus whatever I've not found yet ...
