I think it could be a combination of both. Your car's problem really looked similar to my TT a few years ago. That was probably one of the saddest day of my life. Anyways OP, sometimes it's hard to distinguished between blue and white smokes, especially for if someone is inexperience. You can try to smell it, I think the coolant smoke has a sweet scent.Cytrakz wrote:In the video did it look like the smoke was more blue or white? Does one color mean a different problem from the other?
Listen to es.biggs, get that compression test done, it can tell you a lot.
Good luck and keep us updated OP.
I could part that sucker out for 1k.. If your willing to do the work or pay someone to get the work done, Buy the parts, possibly stress your self out, then DO IT!NolimitZ32 wrote:If its as you say pretty damn clean and complete Id ask more than 1k however few would be willing to pay it but you could find someone if you hold out long enough. All in all 1 k sounds fair for a complete, clean native TT with blown engine. Someone who would do the work himself/herself could get it back on the road for as little as new piston or pistons (depending on how many are busted) which used TT pistons can be had super cheap or some Wiescos for $600 a set. To get someone to do a rebuild I'd say you're looking at anywhere from 2k to 6k depending on how deep into upgrades you get.
