Fellow V6 enthusiasts,
I am currently deliberating on a MKI with less than 15,000km and in pristine condition exterior-wise. On the inside, the steering rim have flaked a bit (will replace with new wheel) and some of the centre console trim and the door trim has scratch marks, which actually doesnt bother me a bit.
I borrowed the car to test recently and noticed a slight whine when accelerating between 2500 to about 4000rpm. The whine only lasts for about half a second at most for 2-3 times during the acceleration range but the noise can be repeated when accelerating in the said range. Additionally, I have noticed that the brake lights doesnt seem to go off even if I let off the brake, perhaps a valve problem?
What other issues should I be aware of? The car is fitted with a relatively new set of S-03 tyres.
I dont know a whole lot about this special car yet, so desperately seek your advice and experience on this matter.
Thanks in advance,
krms
