Message Found this Z in the autotrader here in phx,POS
thought I'd check out. When i first get there the guy tells me he has done the whole 60k maint. and stuff and everything is running great. I drive it, and it pulls pretty hard but there was still running a bit rough. I run a VIN check and everything checks out ok. it was repainted 9months ago but they didn't go a good job, needed to be repainted by a quality shop.
So then I take it to my Zmechanic so he can look at.
Right when we get to the shop the guy fesses up and says he bought the car with the engine hydrolocked, so he dropped a jspec engine in.I still had it checked out by my mechanic.
When he got done his exact words were, "Yunus, run as fast as you, just get the hell away from this car."
The whole ignition system needed replacing, it was only running on 5cylinders, the car had been in both a front and rear end accident and they did a shotty job putting it back together(barely any sheet metal left in the front clip all patched w/fiberglass).
this is like the 3rd TT that i've seen that had been neglected.
so frustrating....
my NA needs a new/rebuilt auto tranny so i'm stuck driving my mom's wagon.
I need a TT
