Do you have a link to the OBDII adapter? There's a ton on amazon, not sure if one is better than the other.

Rule #1 If the owner is wearing his baseball hat backwards... Most likely a hoopty

[@TheRollingTimes]

🤣🤣 if the owner isnt in his 40s or older its probably a hoopty!

[@SRC503]

I'm thinking about picking 2002 at the dealership they asking $4554 127,000mi.

[@TheRollingTimes]

Sounds expensive for a mk4 but cheap from a dealership

[@SRC503]

@@TheRollingTimes I'm going to check it out next week. 1 owner and lots of service history.

[@menacerc2366]

Too much

[@JoelCaseyJonesMusic]

@@SRC503the service history and single owner is worth the price. Mk4 is a good starting platform (depending on engine) to slick up in terms of trim package. They can be very at the edge of Audi luxury interior if you have patience to find the right parts.

[@patatofruit4393]

Boost controller not even hooked up.. 😆 that will do it

[@itwasnteveryfloor5038]

Those stupid roof racks, add power to the car only to ruin it with an airbrake, great idea.

[@TheRollingTimes]

While i agree roof racks as a cosmetic add on are kinda dumb, most of the people in my area actually use them for their bikes or cargo boxes on vacation. The bars themselves dont create that much drag when nothings on them.

[@Shepherdservices317]

Lol not going to be doing g all this for a 2k car. Does it run? Drive? Alright it's good to go lol

[@TheRollingTimes]

Should look over any car before you buy it. If you dont you're a fool lol

[@just_in_case6002]

On the German cars with the coolant ball reservoirs you can open them at any time, whether they are hot or not. However any other car its good advice to never open the cooling system when hot.

[@TheRollingTimes]

No you cant. Most have a defelector so the coolant doesnt spray you directly but if you take cap all the way off while hot its going to give you 3rd degree burns.
