Starts and drives fine but advertised as spares or repair as some work is needed.

5 spd manual, 103k, MoT until 10/9/19, 2 keys (1 brand new), part service history.

Good points
*Brakes,steering, clutch and gears all feel fine.
*Full timing belt kit and full service done in March this year.
*New turbo fitted in April this year.
Invoices to back up work mentioned above.

Bad points
*ABS module fault.
*Needs at least one 'O' ring replacing.
*Strong smell of fumes at times, this could be down to the 'O' ring(s). No other faults showing.

So you know i've got the same car, had the same error and i just had to change the EGR valve, got one for £20 off ebay and it drives fine now.

smell of fumes could also be the breather pipe as mine had a similar thing and when i took the cover off the breather had come lose so was leaking fumes out just needed reseating.

nice looking cars best of luck.

Yeah, thanks. ABS module fault has been confirmed though, EGR valve looks quite recent. We need the car gone anyway, faults or no faults. Just bought a VW camper and don't really want to be paying to keep three vehicles on the road.
