Assessing engine condition

Jul 18, 2003 1 Replies

I'm about to put out some more money on my old car. 150,000 mi/ 13yrs. old -- talon tsi. I could use some tips in how to gauge the condition of the engine. I use very little oil, spark plugs always look great, runs strong, feels good, I'm going to compression test it tomorrow, all new valves 40,000 mi. ago, and that's all I could think of at this moment.



If there's anything I should be looking at or checking into please enlighten me before I dump more money into this car.



Sincerely, Greg
