    The 30 day rule does not apply as it is not a trade sale but a private one between a Company (whose business is not selling cars) and an individual. But if the sale is not as described then that rule applies to a private sale as well.

    I was on the Liqui Moly stand at Automechanika and they suggested CERATEC. Does anyone have any experience of this.

    I could not go as I was upto my neck in work but that is what I have seen recommended BUT it would take a set of very carefully policed tests over hundreds of thousands of miles over a decade to even get close to being definitive. We have have down the wrong road and are about to turn off into an electric dead end...

    A winning update:

    Firstly, my sincerest apologies for the unorthodox delay and absence from the thread. It has been a mad few weeks both at work and at home.

    I got all my money back, no quibbles. The company arranged for the car to be picked up and made me an offer to buy the car from them as spares and repairs in the process and leave the car with me. We discussed the option, negotiated and after carefully working on the costs involved bought the car again at depreciated book value at a price that can genuinely be described as 'peanuts'. Got really lucky and came across an identical car with 18K miles Motor Hog was breaking and managed to get the complete engine, turbo, rad pack and gearbox for a very good price. This is now my project for the summer and will keep me and my 8 year old quite busy come July / August!

    I, in the mean time, have ended up buying an A6 again but a BiTDI S Line BE this time.

    😀😀😀

    Thank you all so so much for all your help and support. I'll try and keep you all posted once I start on the A7. I intend to make a new thread when doing so and if allowed by the moderators.

    P.S. I also recently found out when making enquiries with companies that sell parts and such (TPS, Audi Parts and Service, Euro Car Parts etc.) that NO company is willing to give part numbers to customers. I didn't realise they were guarded so fiercely despite them being listed on the actual parts anyway.

    Hi! Could someone please help me with the following part for this project? Is it a dealer only part as I can't seem to find a new one from third party retailers other than TPS?

    0B5 105 317 T

    I've come across a lot of different letter endings when scouring through eBay but not T...

    It's a dual mass fly wheel for this car.

    Making a start on the project!

    That is the correct one for a CRTE engine, it is not available aftermarket.
