Soon to be owner of MK6 GTI

Hey guys,

I have been looking at GTIs for a couple of months now. I have happened across one in particular (2010 GTI with ~65000kms) which has certain features I like, but I'm worried about its history and, of course, what I might be in for in the future.

It had dealership services at about 15k/1yr, 25k/2yr, 35k/3yr, and 45k/4yr.

At approximately 55k it suffered the dreaded timing chain tensioner failure, valves hit pistons, low compression on all cylinders. Cylinder 2 was damaged. A new engine was fitted. They completed the remainder of the scheduled 60k service, changed the DSG oil and filter.

So it has done about 10k kms with the new engine. It has been about 2 years since replacement so it might have a further year warranty. It is a trade in at a dealership.

Would you steer clear? I have it for the weekend - anything I should test or check out in particular?
