The engine management system frequently throws codes for EGR (Exhaust Gas Recirculation) or oxygen sensors, often caused by soot buildup.
- Clutch and Gear Linkage Wear(Moderate)
The manual gearshift linkage can become vague and floppy as the cables and bushes wear. The clutch pedal pivot can also weaken, leading to difficulty selecting gears.
- Coil Spring and Suspension Wear(Moderate)
Front coil springs can snap, and suspension bushes and drop links wear prematurely on UK roads, causing knocks and vague handling.
