Hi all newbie here, found comments and advise useful so thought I'd join proper like, latest I've found with my 2010 diesel fr is a fault that seems like limp mode but loads of revs just no power, local mechanic thinks its down to an auxiliary water pump and it's it's associated sensor thinking the engine is to hot, well it's just gone thru 136000 miles so I've had my monies worth I suppose. Have to say despite the odd failure as it gets older it's the most fun and drivable car I've ever known

This is likely to be the last car I own, I will make the most of it I can on the modest pension incomes I am in receipt of, have fun in your retirement and make the most of it, we are the lucky ones I feel for the generations behind us.
