Don't be surprised if the engine needs a rebuild, in which case go with a good low km used one and ditch the tune.
Is the turbo okay? How much did they increase the boost with the tune?
It says 500cL in the Notes and 5L in the description. Since they are the same volume I'm guessing 5L.
I don't see 5L in the description only 500cl in the report, maybe I just don't see it on this small screen, but no matter.
I know 500cl is 5L but 5L would be the more common way of writing it that's why I was wondering if cl was a error for ml.
There a a box titled “make up oil added” below the comments section. It’s says 5Ltr was added.
I didn’t realize at first this was a 2.0 PD engine? These are kind of rare in USA, 2.0 PD only used in the Passat for 1 or 2 years. I suppose the iron could be from the camshaft as the PDs cam was known to fail with 5w30. However given the ridiculous oil consumption it’s not likely IMO.
