*Help Needed* Going to look at V70 Tdi
Hi Guys,
Going to look at a 1998 V70 Tdi with 240k on it. What to look out for and what to ask!! Faults i know about already; Aircon needs regassing (Maybe owner not looked into it) Cruise control (Maybe a fuse) |

Ours has just turned 245k, bought at 190k.
Issues that have been sorted in the last 55k miles:- Timing belts change, cambelt (plus waterpump), fuel pump belt and auxillary belt. Auxillary tensioner Cleaned out the inlet manifold/EGR valve Steering rack Front wishbones Sump gasket Shocks have gone extremely soft Brakes discs/pads Regular servicing Hopefully the above list will help you a little.
