Newbie

Post by r085ter »

Hi all I've just purchased my 52 plate 206cc with a mere 68k on the clock with a full service history BARGAIN at £1800. :dance:
The only thing i have found so far thats a bit of a problem is the roof intermitently stops and starts while opening, and on closing the boot lid will open and the parcel shelf retracts but the roof seems to just bounce up and down several times before it finaly releases and closes.
I have read many posts on here (fantastic site btw.) and not found a post with similar details of the problem.
Any advice would be great thanks.

Hi & welcome. It sounds as though you are low on hydraulic fluid. Use the search facility, and you will find a couple of posts on how to check/refill it.
Cheers Col.
