Possible Allroad Purchase -- Suspension Problems
Hi all,
Currently have a 03' 3.0 which has been giving problems due to electrical issues and exhaust problems..
Might buy a 03' 2.7 Allroad which looks decent.
Has 125K Miles / 200K KM and seller wants $5.5 CAD for it.
Air suspension is currently inoperable so I hooked my Vag into it and it's throwing these codes -- mechanic who's selling it is telling me it needs a new module and they replaced all the bags in the past.. Just want to know what you guys think based on the codes:
Also, noticed that I wasn't getting the beep when arming alarm, so I hit the panic button and it seems that the alarm horn isn't going off, but only the 4 ways are. When the rear right door is open I'm not getting any interior lights, or it door open on the instrument cluster.. I'm thinking it needs a new door latch assembly?
The engine also threw out these codes, but I'm not too worried about them as they appear to be intermittent:

The codes for the bad EGT SENSORS will likely be dead EGT sensors, but ive had very good luck removing the EGT Sensors and removing the silicone gel and REFLOWING THE SOLDER. Seriously, 9 times out of 10 this has fixed the problem.
The misfire in #5 is easy enough to trouble shoot by swapping coils. Mabe a compression and/or leakdown test is in order.
It could be a really decent deal, but has the potential to be extremely costly. Best of luck to you!
