Volkswagen Golf R Wagon Wolfsburg Edition in for a Post Purchase Service check
During the service we found oil leaks from the upper timing cover seals and cam magnet seals, plus a coolant leak from the oil filter housing and oil cooler. We replaced the relevant gaskets and seals to fix all of them.
What we did:
β
οΈEngine service with VW 504/507 spec oil and a Mann filter
β
οΈDSG service with Motul DCTF and a Mann filter
Haldex service with genuine fluid, including a filter clean
β
οΈNGK spark plugs
β
οΈBrake fluid flush with ATE SL6
Just bought a car that was "freshly serviced"? We see it all the time. A lot of pre sale services are just an oil and filter change, and the logbook items get skipped. The book gets stamped, but the work wasn't done to spec, and that can cost you down the track.
Don't guess. Book in a post purchase service and know exactly what you've bought.
