Description from the seller, in Finnish.

Mercedes-Benz W203 OM611 C220 CDI 2001 Mersussa kiihdytyksen kanssa ongelmia, semmoinen suhiseva ääni kaasuttaessa eikä tehot riitä. Korjaamossa sanottiin että turbossa vain pientä välystä, vaihdoin 2 ahtoputkea ja se auttoi vähän. Voi olla joku klemmariki vaan jääny löysälle. Nyt myös joku kolina kuuluu auton alta ihan kuin joku keppi jarruissa vaan, ei varmaan iso juttu, mutta semmonenki siis on. Vähän ruostetta tämän ikäisessä autossa, paikkailin ja maalailin päälle, näkyy että on paikkailtu... Pohja ihan hyvässä kunnossa kuitenkin Puskuri istuu vähän löysällä eikä ihan täysin istu paikalleen, edestäpäin katsottuna oikea etu sivu kate vähän ulkona. Valittaa ajotietokone ESP ei toimi, Washer flluid ei ole, Jäähäri loppu. Vaikka ihan kunnossa pitäis ollakki kaikki. Vilkut välillä reistailee, muttei aina. Turbon pakosarjan puolinen tiiviste vaihdettu, öljyt vaihdettu, yksi koiranluu, raidepääntanko, iskari ja jotain muuta oli vaihdettu, ei ole kuitteja juuri tässä. Taka jarru palat ja takajarru levyt juuri vaihdettu Kahdet renkaat toiset on mersun alkuperäiset Mersun alkuperäiset katto telineet kanssa kaupanpäälle Vielä on leimaa jäljellä Webasto toimii kaukosäätimestä mersu avaimesta. OMA AKKU MUKAAN Jollekkin ammattilaiselle siitä viikoksi homma, ja siitä hyvä kauppakassi tai talvipulkka. Itsellä ei enää aikaa potilaalle. Pystyy ajamaan, vähän se kolina itteä häiritsee ku ihmiset kadulla miettii mitä helvettiä. Sijaitsee nyt paimiossa. Yhteyden otot Whatsapp viestillä
