I'm posting this for a co-worker. It has been his DD for the last 6 years and is in good/great shape minus the engine problems of course.

2004 GTI

1.8t

manual transmission

152k

17” wheels

Dealership maintained

2 cylinder has serious issues; failed on the interstate. No compression on #2. Timing belt appears good. Spark plug indicates contact with valve of piston.

He is asking $1500.

PM me with any interest and I'll forward it along.

what is wrong with the motor? Belt?

crap I must have deleted that part....here you go:

Timing belt looks good, but #2 cylinder has serious issues. No compression and the #2 spark plug has damage, like impact damage.

Also it's in Nashville, TN

PM'ed you.

I'm in- tell me more.

Okay I replied to all the messages I have so far. Good luck guys. Seems like a real good deal.

Car is sold. Someone for this forum bought it.

whoever bought it is a lucky person...

wow. freaking steal. who got it?

Duke...?

nope. I got a Volvo....

Can I ask a REALLY stupid question?

Is it me??

I spoke with the seller and was trying to make arrangements to pick it up, but they weren't coming together. I assumed he gave up on me. I am hoping he wasn't counting on me.

Do I need to follow up with him??

I bought it. Should be a great car - seller was easy to work with and very forthcoming. Can't wait to have it sitting in the driveway.

Excellent!

Enjoy!!
