Im selling my vrs pd 170 and have seen a 1.9tdi elegance for sale on a 52 plate,

 

Any common problems or anything I should pay particular attention to when viewing?

 

Thanks

Sticky turbo / limp mode is the big issue.

 

Older cars:

 - dash remembers trip details, etc when ignition turned off/removed (voltage regular/dry joint fault)

 - broken springs

 - smooth wipers

 - damp carpets (especially in the rear)

 - tension not broken on the aux belt

 - cambelt (etc) changed on 60k (/3-4 years?)

 - keys work in the locks (esp tailgate on an estate)

 

Otherwise standard mk1 Octy faults.
