- ✓Check the wheel arches, sills, and step areas for rust; structural rot is common.
- ✓Listen for a rough idle (hunting), which often points to Suction Control Valve (SCV) or Pressure Relief Valve (PRV) failure.
- ✓Ensure the 'Black Death' (leaking injector seals) hasn't occurred; look for black tar-like residue around the injectors.
- ✓Verify the oil pump has been replaced on 2.2 models, as failure is common and fatal to the engine.
