Hey, just wondering what problems you have all had with your 9n's.

So far, on my 02' i have had:

Ignition coil failure
Fire in front headlight
Leaking rear door seals
Rear wiper did not clear properly

I think its time to get rid of it soon n get a Corrado VR6

On my 04 1.2 iv had the following problems:

- Rear and front washer jets not working,
- ABS unit replaced (was only indicated by a beeping when starting engine, no light)
- sqeeky rear suspension
- Engine managment system going to pot when overtaking lorry - lost almost all power!
- car telling me i needed a service at 8k miles - apparently didnt need it til 12-13k.
- tracking out, pulling to the left - took the car back they said it was the camber of the road, eventually they realigned and its now scrubbing tyres off

thats all i can think of at the min but have been back to the garage plenty of times!

M7 - what happened with your sqeeky suspension? did the garage sort it? iv got a feeling that they arnt going to do anything about it as its only when going over speed bumps when you can hear it!

its suspension bushes thats causing the creak

got mine done within 7 days of picking it up, brand new.

and yes it indicated i needed a service at 4kmiles, and they wouldnt clear the beep until i paid them for them to carry out the service
