Fa51wan Posted September 7, 2018 Report Share Posted September 7, 2018 (edited) Hi, I'm looking at buying a lupo 1.4tdi and went to look at one the other day everything seemed okay but there was one thing I noticed that I wasn't sure about and the guy didn't know why it was there either. There was duck tape on the catch of the boot lock covering the torx bits. Could anyone tell my why? Also is there anything I should look for when buying a tdi?

Rich Posted September 7, 2018 Report Share Posted September 7, 2018 The gaffer tape isn't TDI specific. They have probably just lost the screws. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sausage Posted September 8, 2018 Report Share Posted September 8, 2018 Buy it. Not many about so I wouldnt let small things put you off it. If the price is right i wouldnt let major things put me off it either.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fa51wan Posted September 9, 2018 Author Report Share Posted September 9, 2018 Okay thanks. Also it didn't have the engine cover and engine was very clean as if he was hiding something. Is it fine without the engine cover as I know the 1.0 has the air filter in the cover? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rich Posted September 9, 2018 Report Share Posted September 9, 2018 I left my cover hung up on the unit wall, best place for it. I think it is still there as I just put another on when I sold it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sausage Posted September 15, 2018 Report Share Posted September 15, 2018 There is ( or was?) a wiki at the top: http://wiki.clublupo.co.uk/Main_Page but it seems to be down at the moment. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rich Posted September 15, 2018 Report Share Posted September 15, 2018 Someone has been in and the window is catching on something. Often the cable for the mirrors has lost its plastic guide. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
