Buying 2009 Sirocco GT 2.0 tsi engine noise

Post by Kamiljano »

Hey guys I'm looking to buy a 59 plate scirocco, viper green with 78k miles. The car is in excellent condition but is the engine fairly loud or would the timing chain be needing replaced soon? It's fairly loud at cold start but once it warms up it gets a bit less noisy. Does anyone have a video of what it should sound like before I buy the car? Would be appreciated.

Okay excellent. Don't think the car has that starting up. However from what I've been seeing, the engines are fairly noisy and don't really sound that nice :p
Thanks for the help
