#1: mileage for hdi 2.0 diesel? Author: karimali831, Location: EnglandPosted: Thu Aug 02, 2012 3:55 pm ---- I am looking for a 2.0 hdi diesel found a decent one but with high mileage 110k full service history, should I avoid? what mileage should I not be exceeding with this model? I know all engines are different, 2.0 hdi diesel think this would be best for me eco wise.
Thanks all

Only question is how has it been driven during that time. But I think with the history that Milage shouldn't make too much of a difference. If the car is sound and drives well I would get it inspected by a garage and all being well go for it.

diesel aren't too good with short journey.
most like the injector and turbo are on it's way out.

if its not showing in the service history then you can either use it as a bartering chip on the price or if your buying from a trader you could try and get them to change it as part of the deal
#8: Re: mileage for hdi 2.0 diesel? Author: marc206, Location: Bourne, LincsPosted: Thu Aug 02, 2012 4:34 pm ---- 110k for diesel is more like 50k for petrol, not alot at all
#9: Re: mileage for hdi 2.0 diesel? Author: adsayer, Location: NorthallertonPosted: Thu Aug 02, 2012 4:43 pm ---- It's just worn in at 100k

#11: Re: mileage for hdi 2.0 diesel? Author: cartoonhead, Location: North ManchesterPosted: Thu Aug 02, 2012 7:22 pm ---- i've 2 turbos in my spares shed that are goosed and there both from under 100K engines
#12: Re: mileage for hdi 2.0 diesel? Author: anton1989, Location: west midlandsPosted: Fri Aug 03, 2012 12:11 am ---- not high at all
depends on price
change the cambelt anyway! even if he says its been done
as for them breaking under 100k, if not looked after then of course.
i've had 2 mk4 tdi golfs 0ne was still going way past 170k only gave up because it was forced to! ( misses wrote it off) and my other 1 just over 100k and was a bag of s**t, problem after problem because it was not looked after before i bought it
how many owners?

PPT 40 is only on the multiplexed 206's, its just the type of connector plug used NOT the actual spec of the display unit fitted.
Its a simple retrofit if the car doesnt already have it fitted.
Your looking for the 3 line PPT 40 display for the trip computer functions your after, also look for << on the end of the wiper stalk.
