    '02 Golf

    Unfortunately I have decided to part ways with my '02. The girl and I need something a big more comfy (larger) and she wants modernity... The car is aesthetically challenged. Rust, dents, cracked windshield, scratched door -- but reliable as hell. I would rather see her used to keep others...

    This looks bad... just how bad?

    If it's got no shaft play, not consuming oil, or doing the dentist drill. I would go over the entire turbo inlet path and change the filter. Keep driving, and worry less.
