Cool. I doubt you'll see any wear in the cylinders unless the engine was abused. I just did bearings in a 200K engine and the cylinders were perfect, no...
I agree, a 97k mile TDI that was taken care of should be in great shape, as the one in my wifes jetta just turned 342k. It has had oil changes every 3k, but it...

OK, I have the gas IC with the Jetta diesel tach in place. I was going to plug it into the wiring harness and for some reason I stopped. I looked at the...
