Hi,

ATM 130k km on the clock. Not a single problem with engine or manual gearbox. Fuel consumption under 8l/100 km urban.

Think it is time to clean intake manifold since i have slight vibration on idle. Not problem but regular maintenance for FSI engines. Still everything as it was when it came from the factory regarding engine mounts, front or rear axle...

Turbocharger dry without wining, electromagnetic supercharger clutch without clicking noise. Not to mention there isn't slightest sign of misfiring or, knock on wood, cracked piston.

Car is 2007. MY 2008. BLG engine code.


Thank you all for kind word. Had few sets of wheel on car but AeroIIs are my favorite. Wanna try RH P-Rads and Mae Crown Jewels Mach 1 that i have in shed.

Two pics of:

Mercedes AMG Styling 1 (8.5x18 ET44 + 9.5X18 ET46). Screwed up the color of the hearths but width of the wheels was spot on.

Eta Beta Avior 8x18 ET36 all around.
