I have a tdci now and im selling it because it was shite All i had was problems and if your in 4th flogging it just clouds and clouds of black smoke and it goes no were

And it stalls all the time even if i rev the bollocks off it it starts trying ti fight me like it wants to stall

And 2nd gear chudders like your about to run out of diesel when its half full.

1ts gear has noooo power until 4k revs then a big burst of power then nothing but the rev counter still goes up

And last but not least my cousins 1.25 fiesta smoked it from 0 -100 by a long shot

So another tdci i dont want

Does a job at the end of the day.

Only way to settle it is get to a drag strip and go for it.
