Reply With QuoteWhich bolt? If it’s the air intake cover, likely not properly replaced as part of servicing?

Hi guys, I am looking at Purchasing a secondhand 2015 90TSI 90000klms. During the inspection I found a loose intake bolt, loose to the extent it had nearly fallen out. What could this be an indication of? Anyone experienced this before?
What else should I be looking for with an inspection?
I have never owned a golf before but very familiar with the VAG family having a Transporter, Audi A6 and previously a Skoda.
Any help would be appreciated.

The very end bolt highlighted in the photo, not sure why this would be removed during a standard service, is it a sign of something more sinister?

I would not put yourself through wondering what it is all about - the doubt has already been put there. Just keep looking - there are plenty of 90TSi out there and one will come up before you know it.
