    Turns out I bought a tuned CPO car

    Stock may not be a big letdown. I had an APR stage one and blew an engine. Fortunately warranty covered the cost & I left the car stock after that for the next 60k miles until I sold it.

    Advice/Opinions/Experience, Please - selling car after damage repair

    Every situation is different. In my case my car was paid off, but it was also 6 years old with 76,000 miles and an accident on carfax.

    Advice/Opinions/Experience, Please - selling car after damage repair

    Like I said, I think it affected it by about 2-3k. There were no hoops whatsoever. I did an online quote and they honored the quote when I took it in. They do an inspection when you go in. The whole process took about an hour.

    my tuned GTI suffered a catastrophic engine failure...

    Long story short, check engine light came on. Car started to sputter and misfire. Towed to dealership. All 4 plugs were wet of fuel. #2 had broken. #1 had 100% leak coming from the crank case & #2 had a 10% leak. 3 & 4 passed. They replaced the long block.

    my tuned GTI suffered a catastrophic engine failure...

    Went through same exact scenario at 15k miles. Fortunately, mine got covered by VW. Also had a tranny go out on a Stasis tuned Audi S4 prior to the GTI. I’m at 70k now. Stock since repair. No more tunes going forward. Maybe just bad luck, but I’m done.
