Thought of getting a Pre owned Tdci 2.0 since Euro 5 is widely available in KL. I would like some comments on the following...
1. Is the turbo diesel engine reliable? 2. Is the powershift dual clutch a dry or wet clutch? Does it give the same problems as in the Fiesta? 3. Is the cabin well insulated from road noise and from the diesel engine noise? 4. Any common problem areas I need to be aware when choosing a Pre owned unit? 5. Since Euro 5 is available, does the engine need to be re-tuned to enjoy the full benefits of euro 5 diesel? Thanks |

Is the turbo diesel engine reliable? bulletproof - riding on PSA DW10 engine platform. You can google how reliable is this engine 2. Is the powershift dual clutch a dry or wet clutch? Does it give the same problems as in the Fiesta? No - wet clutch is far more reliable than fiesta. 3. Is the cabin well insulated from road noise and from the diesel engine noise? Pretty good. some clatter in the morning after you warm up, its quite sedate. Not as quiet as a petrol 4. Any common problem areas I need to be aware when choosing a Pre owned unit? bring a mech. usually normal wear and tear 5. Since Euro 5 is available, does the engine need to be re-tuned to enjoy the full benefits of euro 5 diesel? Yes - you can tune it up for more power since better and cleaner fuel Thanks |

If these were fitted with diesel particulate filter, you're best avoiding them, with old euro 2 diesel , it may be end of life already due to the soot load inside the filter , dpf are very expensive to replace.

My gf sister owns the 2014 Focus titanium spec hatchback
Interior space I can say Myvi offers more legroom than the focus The transmission not really that smooth however power is there when you rev it Nvh and refinement not the best in class either However a good buy if you don't have a large family and this can be served as a 2nd car if you have a mpv or suv at home |

Make sure its well taken care off and hv good service history, parts are really expensive. Check wear n tear parts like mountings and bushings are still ok. Turbo hose is the common prob but can be solved by replacing with aluminium hose. 5. Since Euro 5 is available, does the engine need to be re-tuned to enjoy the full benefits of euro 5 diesel? Nope Thanks QUOTE(rcracer @ Feb 5 2017, 05:09 PM) If these were fitted with diesel particulate filter, you're best avoiding them, with old euro 2 diesel , it may be end of life already due to the soot load inside the filter , dpf are very expensive to replace.
