What are the most common problems on that to check out before paying for the scirocco?

Hello everyone,

I’m planning to buy a used Volkswagen Scirocco with the 1.4 TSI 122 hp engine around 180k km or 220km that I saw (I believe it's called CAXA) and I’d like some advice from current or former owners.

The car I’m looking at is a manual transmission model with around 180,000–220,000 km. Before I go for the inspection, what are the most important things I should check on this engine and on the Scirocco in general?

So far I know about scirocco's in egenral;
Timing chain and tensioner issues
Oil consumption
Turbo condition
Water pump / cooling system

Any advice on what to inspect during a cold start and test drive would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance!

What does this mean ? Is it the manifold or does anyone know ? I have an Opel Astra H 2004 Z14XEP. What could be the issue with that error ? Should I be worried?

I have an Opel Astra H (2005) with a CD30 unit. The car doesn’t have an AUX port. Is there any cheap mod I can do to add Bluetooth to it somehow? I heard that a CD changer adapter might work, but I’m not sure. I also heard from others that I should buy a CD30 MP3 with AUX, but I don’t know exactly which model to search for.
