Important – Observed faults and technical condition:

Schiedman report available in the photos

A technical inspection found multiple oil and coolant leaks in the engine bay. The car is sold for repair and is not recommended to be driven before the leaks are fixed.

Inspection findings:

• Oil and fluid leaks: Several leak points were detected in the engine. The primary cause is most likely a faulty breather/PCV valve in the valve cover, which builds pressure in the engine.

• Valve cover gasket: Leaking on the exhaust manifold side (recommend replacing the valve cover and gasket together due to the breather fault).

• Oil filter housing: Seals are leaking (recommend replacing the housing/seal set).

• Coolant leak: Water pump/thermostat housing is leaking.

• Hose flange at water pump: Leaking (next to the water pump).

• Balance shaft cover: Leaking on the exhaust manifold side.

• Oil sump gasket: Leaking.

• Turbocharger: Excessive play on the turbine shaft.

Repair recommendation: It is recommended to reseal the engine (excluding the cylinder head gasket and rear crank seal) and to perform breather and turbo repair/servicing.

Delivery and notes:

Two sets of tyres and wheels are included. Both still have tread remaining.

• The car is sold as seen at the time of sale. The highest binding bidder is obliged to purchase the item.
