Y reg TD4 ESD, owned for the last 20,000 miles and has had a few minor issues.

Boot door lock sometimes won't relatch, but a little thump sorts it every time. Top radiator hose split, replaced by myself, so no biggie. Heating never runs very hot, but that could just be the car. Few rattles from trim, turn stereo up. Slight leak if I really fill up with fuel, dont brim tank. Amber engine management light came on after I ran out of fuel 18 months ago, thats a bit annoying, must get that sorted one day.

Really nothing at all.

Steve

Good point, I am considering downgrading to something a bit more economical simply because of the mileage I do, even at 32-34mpg the td4 is costing me a fortune - strangely though this time last year it didn't! Thanks Gordon, Darling etc!

Just to point out to the mass reading public, that wind your neck in is a 'figure of speech' as in 'dry your eyes'.

Having never met Sirus it was by no means, intended as a detriment to his character or username

Sirus stop spamming my threads!

Looking good folks, thanks for the replies so far.

The 2L L-series diesel has come up trumps.

Keep them votes coming.

Thanks
