Hi All
Im considering a TD5 , its a 2002 facelift model , automatic .
The car I viewed has been parked up for a few months . It started great and the engine ran smooth , however some lights stayed on , I think the lights relate to the auto transmission , two green lights along the bottom of the binnical , the other light is for the air suspension , ABS , brake pad/fluid ? and hill desent .
On a test drive the car was sluggish and the transmission felt lazy .There was no brakes , pedal going to the floor and very little stopping power .
With the car running I coiuld hear what sounded like the air suspension compressor running , but the ride heigh did not change . The car sat level before I started it so I can assume the air bag springs are not leaking .
Should I walk away from this car ? or if I can buy it for circa 2000 euro is it worth fixing
Sorry about the long first post and thanks for reading
