Possible 2007 A4 2.0T quattro S line purchase.

[colombo]

Looking at buying a 2007 audi A4 quattro S line with low Km. It has had the cam replaced because of where from the follower. I know the follower wear is an issue on these but with debris in the engine I don't know if can still be trusted. The work was done professionally and flushed.

So does this previous fix have potential to be catistrofic?

pay the extra cash, and have the cam follower inspected pre-purchase.
other points of note are rust on door blades, suspension creaks (the control arms are notorious), dipped headlights, and pixelated display.
