Youngest D2 is now 10 years old lots have done lots of miles and lots of people assume they just go on and on without looking at them!
As with most cars now people generally do not check or service them regularly

if there were no problems, there would be no forum!
D2's have as many problems as D1's,
but as been said by others, some looked after some used and abused!

You have to be a technician nowadays!

Technician, does that mean somebody that has a proper piece of kit to read the diagnostics, then start changing parts to eliminate the problem?
lol only joking,

Yes, normally changing all the wrong parts as that's what diagnostics said to change! Not look deeper and find the root of the problem! Lol

My Mrs is always complaining that something is always needing done on my disco.....em yes dear that's why it never actually breaks down. She cant comprehend my attending to every small issue as opposed to her theory of leaving something to develop until its scrap
Aaaaah, now this sounds very very familiar. My wife does not seem to be able to grasp the concept of 'preventative maintenance' at all. I reckon she believes I like lying on my back in the cold and wet, smashing my hands to pieces on rusted fixings. Pulling my guts out and getting frustrated to hell.
Bless 'em,
Dave
