Cinderella Transformation of a VW Golf 7R with 156790 Km.
We were asked to assist in restoring the Golf 7R after is stood for a while due to engine trouble. The timing chain, tensioners, slide rails and sprockets were changed including the oil chain drive. The cam follower had wear and swopped out for a new one. This was followed by a carbon clean and cleaning of the 4 GDI injectors and 4 PFI injectors. Once that was done, we completed a full major service and brake fluid flush. Externally, new side mirrors were fitted as well as the rear R badge and R wheel centre caps. The headlight washer units had to be replaced together with the junction O-ring between the upper and lower window washer reservoirs. The battery was replaced with a Bosch 70Ah battery and coded.
