Hello I am new to the forum and new to audis altogether so excuse my ignorance/ knowledge on the cars. I recently bought (10 days ago) a 53 plate a3 bkd 2.0 tdi 140.
love the car apart from I noticed the coolant light come on. so I topped it up to just over half way and is very slowly going down its also struggles to start when its left for a while and the needle on the revometer fluctuates yet the idle seems quite normal bar a little judder but nothing to serious. :confused:
checked for external leaks which I cant seem to find any then got worried about it being a more serious problem so did some reading on various forums and come to the conclusion its likely to be a pourus/ cracked head?!?. the trader I bought it from says it has a 30 day warranty but the buyer has to go half on parts and labour?! is this right?
Anyway just wondering if anyone's had any experience or suggestions? Also if it is cracked how long can I drive it for before it goes bang? maybe also with some k seal? , it is a very slow leak but never the less a leak is there.
any suggestions/ help is would be much appreciated
