Before you buy this car
From the generation guide
- Multitronic: drive from a stop and at 60-100 km/h. Bad: jerks when pulling away, a drone at speed, or a warning lamp. A fault search needs a workshop with special equipment.
- V6 petrol: listen for a rattle 2 to 5 seconds after a cold start. Ask for a cylinder endoscopy (a camera inside the bores) and a fault scan for P0016, P0017 and P0018.
- Suspension: on a lift, check wheel bearings, bushes and dampers for play and leaks. On air suspension, check ride height; a scanner shows height sensor faults.
