2 Litre diesel 6 speed 2006 Ghia model Estate. What's the cambelt intervals on these and is the Service intervals every 12,500 miles or 12 months which ever comes first?  Anything to look for in terms of problems when looking over one as I've got to have a look at one tomorrow ta. This ones one owner 52k miles FSH I'm told.   Someone mentioned EGR's to me.   |

Or 10 yrs whichever comes first..
DPF additive needs refill every 37500 miles too, seeing loads of cars with DPF faults because customers decline additive refill..

I'll have a look
When you view the car you can check yourself too, additive tank is at the rear of the fuel tank,which you can see if you get down at ground level

Motor looks ok after a look over it and a test drive. One owner plus it was a Demo. Up to the Customer now what they do? I was speaking to a bloke who recons the DPF is meant to be replaced at the 75000 mile service. Is that correct Karl? |

No not on these, on the 1.6 tdci it's due at 75,000
There's no service interval on the 2.0
And we don't change that many on these. So replace as and when it gets blocked
