In reading the ad, that mileage makes me think the timing belt is kaput, but who really knows. With simple bolt ons and a flash, you can make decent power!
2007 VW GTI SILVER 2DR AUTOMATIC.
NON RUNNING, HAS NOT RAN SINCE 2017. HAS NOT BEEN DIAGNOSED. COULD BE MAJOR ISSUE OR MINOR. Has over 90,000 miles definitely know it's under 100,000 miles. My guess is the engine needs to be replaced but I know almost nothing about engines. Do know there was slight knocking of engine before it's fateful death. Replace of pistons could be the fix or just a new battery.
