So im looking at getting a B5 which seems to have been kept well. The torque converter is bad i guess but thats a whole different thing....
What Im wondering, Is there a way I would be able to tell if the Balance shaft module has been replaced/repaired, Should this be a major concern of mine on a tdi with 245k?
The Head has been rebuilt. Should i assume ( i know i shouldn't) that doing a head job they would take care of any other serious issues? What are other potential issues. Sorry i have been reading and searching A lot but I think i may be search handicapped.....
The timing belt, trans and head have all been redone in the last 40k.......according to them, and they claim to have paperwork
Thanks for any guidance! Im much more familiar with the 1.9L ALH/BEW
