KiwiYork Posted March 11, 2019 Report Share Posted March 11, 2019 G'day - new (to me) Lupo owner here in York. Silver SDI diesel ... pretty sure I've seen a very similar one blasting around around here too! Got a few things to sort out - few paintwork issues, fan only operating at level 4 (think it's the resistor from other posts on this forum) and non-functioning rear windscreen wiper and washer. Currently have a flat battery though so one thing at a time! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Andrew1971 Posted March 12, 2019 Report Share Posted March 12, 2019 (edited) That slipped my mind too. SDI s slowly taking over. Edited March 12, 2019 by Andrew1971 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What is the EGR, what does it do and where can I find it? It sounds serious. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mk2 Posted March 12, 2019 Report Share Posted March 12, 2019 Uh oh. Opened a can of worms here... lots you can do to a SDI to make it even better than it is already (no cynical comments please everyone). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Last car I had to tinker with was a MK1 fiesta which was great. Won't make any references to the similarity between my lupo and baked bean tins .... 🙄 At the moment I'll be satisfied with sorting out the battery draw.
