introduction - Bodgit-Fixit-Run - 04-06-2016
Hi all
Just joined the forum. Got a 2007 Berlingo today, done 173000 miles but seems fine. Anything I should look out for?
I look forward to joining in conversations etc.

Nah!! I like messing about with cars and have rebuilt my rav4 turbo in the past. So not worried about that. Sounds like a good service project first then.

Keep an eye out for leaky injectors and make sure the oil is changed on time, with the correct oil.
As yours has already got to 173k, it's either been well looked after anyway, so you've nothing to worry about, or its had all the bits that break replaced when the oil isn't changed on time (injector seals, turbo) so you've nothing to worry about.
It should have had a timing belt change at 10 years or 150k..

Thanks guys.
It's had a belt change but not sure when.
Silly question. How do I tell if the injectors are leaky?
