They scrub up like new, it never ceases to amaze me.I gave it a jet wash after repair, She said the car looks better than when she bought it 7 years ago

test was positive. but it took quite a while to change the blue liquid to green/yellow. must be very small leak from cylinder to coolant. The system keeps building up pressure which it holds for days. not sure of total cost but its not going to be cheapIs it an expensive repair? AMF has no egr cooler so must be head gasket at fault if test is positive
Today, I rescued yet another A21.4 tdi with 114k miles, on the clock for a lovely lady I met by accident in Worthing, from the scrapyard.
The car drove fantastic, Audi had quoted £3000 to repair the damge. ( She had hit a bullard not claimed from insurance )
With thanks to @Proghound for supplying the door & @RS11SMS for the Sill, 1/2 liter of paint & sundries etc for the rear door & wing 8 hours solid work.
Job done, with less than a quarter of Audi price, She was extatic as She has had the car for seven years & didn,t want to part with it.
So tired, but so happy
Sorry to see you go. I can see the appeal of the cactus, its design is a bit 'out-there' just like the A2.Today I sold my beloved 1.6FSI Colour Storm. Took five minutts from I posted the advert, until it was sold. I needed 5 seats, and they rarely come up for sale in Norway, never seen a Colour Storm for sale with 5 seats, at least not in Norway. Good thing is that it went to a good home as the new owner had 3 A2´s.
New car is a Cactus, same hp, weight around 1000kg, and at least, its bonnet are made of aluminium.

The A2 looks big! Good luck and maybe one day return to A2 ownership again...Today I sold my beloved 1.6FSI Colour Storm. Took five minutts from I posted the advert, until it was sold.

Haven’t collected it yet as i had to go to work but I’m curious about smoke test results as it has been de-catted.
I can remove one in about 25 minutes, but that’s using a impact gun and being on a breaker where ancillaries can be cut through ?Today, I removed an OSS from a car in 3 hours, Dont know if that is good time or bad, I had a couple of tips from Forum OSS experts @Kleynie , Thanks Ian.
Now the question is as some say fitting is the reverse of removal Often not only I have to remove a faulty one from another car first prior to fitting the working one, I think I may have to wait till Ian & Adam have time.
