2.0 DTI Common Faults?

[antowns]

Hello guys

I have a 1.9 CDTi 150 and i know there are a couple of common faults to look out for,

My father is going to look at a 52 Plate 2.0 DTi (87,000 miles) at the weekend and i was just wondering what are the common faults with the DTi engine?

Its priced up for £999, good price?

Cheers guys

is that the vectra B?

Not a lot to look at really compared to the CDTI make sure there's no play in rear wheels by pulling top of wheel towards you,check oil,water
Then just general common sense things like tyres/suspension/clutch but for that price you aint going to find a pristine example

Although I think that price is a bit cheap for a good car. First question for me would be why is it so cheap. But as said the dti's have there faults but never usually expensive nor serious

Unless it's the fuel pump or dmf

Which are fairly rare faults
