Potential newbie

Hi all

I currently have a 2.0 Audi TT Mk2 and have fallen in love with the shape of the Z4 M Sport trim. I'm very interested in a 2.0 E89 and a strong candidate has appeared on Autotrader. As a current member of the TT Forum, there's a good section on what to look out for when going to look at one (i.e. cambelt, sagging seats).

After a search, I couldn't find anything similar on here (unless I'm being blind), is there anything you would recommend to keep an eye out for or any common faults?

Cheers

With the E89,there are a few things to look out for,but one that comes up from time to time is potential boot/roof leaks,which is down to seals apparently.
I am sure the E89 owners will be along soon to help out,but there pretty reliable,tbh.

Should be something on here regards buying info/help?
Hope u find it,and good luck with the search

Welcome to the forum OP.

If you are thinking of an E89 go to the forum Home page, select E89 General then try searching for "buying guide" - I'm sure you will find some useful information there.

If you do get one please don't forget the photos!
