Description from the seller, in Finnish.

Autossa leimaa 16.6.27 asti. 1.9tdi 4motion 2003 Kilometrejä:435000 Öljyt juuri vaihdettu ja noin 10000km välein vaihdettu. Autossa on pieniä ruostekohtia, avaimen etälukitus/avaaminen ei toimi, takakontin avausmekanismi rikki eikä takapaneeli ole siksi kiinni takakontin ovessa mutta paneeli on tallessa, takakontin saa sisäkautta auki. Auton lukitus ei myöskään toimi täydellisesti vaan muut kuin kuskin ovi täytyy laittaa lukkoon auton sisältä keskuslukitusnapista tai fyysisesti oven lukitusmekanismista. Etuoikea ulompi vetonivel nakuttaa ääriasennossa, vaihto osa löytyy mutta en ole itse sitä jaksanut vaihtaa. Vesipumppu vuotaa jäähdytys nestettä mutta ei paljoa, jäähdytysnestettä täytyy lisätä noin 2 kuukauden välein. Auto puhaltaa lämmintä hyvin mutta helteillä kylmää ilma ei tule, eli täytyy kylmäaineet täyttää Autossa on vain yhdet parit renkaita ja ne ovat kitka renkaat, kitka renkaat on ostettu viime talvena ja ovat vielä hyvä kuntoiset. Jarrupala valo palaa autossa koska etuvasemman jarrupalan anturin piuha on katkennut, olen kolvannut piuhat uusiksi yhteen mutta vikavalo ei sillä lähtenyt etuvasemman jarrupala täytyy vaihtaa tai sitten nollata vikakoodit jos haluaa valon pois Autoon on vaihdettu radion tilalle Carplay kosketusnäyttö. Autossa myös hyvät lisävalot.
