Gt tdi 115
« on: 30 November 2012, 18:28 »
Looking to buy a gt tdi 115. Any common faults with the engine in this model? Any other advice is much appreciated. The car I'm looking at has a 100k on the clock.
Cheers

Have a goosey in the tdi section for common faults. Most are the same as the petrol bar leaky IC pipe work & sometimes popping off  :laugh: the DMF will need replacing every so often and the turbos...No one can tell on a turbo, luck of the draw  :undecided:

I'm running a 115PD GTTDI, and it's a great little car :smiley:

As mentioned, no specific issues with this model, that you wouldn't find on the rest. Ultimately it does come down to luck of the draw and how well it's been looked after :undecided:
