....f*cked already!
That's what I get a buying newer, low miler I guess.
So yeah, bought this for a very good price from ebay the other day, with the plan to fix up or break. Went to move it from the drive onto the grass, first it cut out on the drive after white smoking a lot (possibly steam but smelt dieselly), took it round the front, hit 3k and felt like a jerky hard cut limiter, let off throttle and it cut out again. Started up fine, stuck it in reverse to back onto the grass and it died, turns over but wont start. No diag light or codes stored. Just waiting for the PP2k laptop to charge so can check it with that. Had to tow it back onto the grass with the 1.8 lol, handy having spare 306s around!
I'm guessing lift pump tbh... Its definitely something fuel related anyway.
So basically just a warning to anyone buying a HDi on ebay...rag the f*ck out of it before you leave the sellers house, just in case.
