hey all,

i am looking to buy myself a used A4 avant 2.0 tdi. My budget is 13k and i have seen quite a few good ones on autotrader that only have done 60k - 80k miles. My dad will be paying half for my car but the problem is that he will only lend me the money if he thinks the car is good. At the moment he is not happy spending that much money on a used car. I have convinced him enough that it will be pratical for me and i will be keeping it for a long LONG time, but the question i waNT to ask is how long do these engine last?.
Hope this makes sense

thanks!

I think it's safe to say you won't have to perform any major maintenance on these TDIs before, say, 400 000km or 250 000miles other than maybe reconditioning the turbo and perhaps the injectors. At 60k the engine should still run as good as new.
