This is going to be an odd question for the group but I figured it is similar and someone may know the answer..
I have a 3.6L B6 that I love and DON'T want to give to my son so I am looking at an older Audi A3 wagon for him. I know my car and all the quirks associated such as the oil bolt issue on the 06 &07 but I don't know the issues with the 2.0L... I have heard about the cam follower and such but I haven't had a reason to "follow" the issue.
So my question(s):
Is the 2.0L engine in the Audi A3 the same as in the B6 Passats?
Would you know if it had the same issues?
Would you buy or trust an older(06-09) Audi?
I do most of my car maintenance and I am sure I could do the general stuff on the Audi also but I have no experience with that powerplant.
