Re: PureTech 180 S&S Shine EAT8 - Belt issue still a thing?

The engines with the wet belt issue are the 3 cylinder petrol engines,the mst powerful being the 130bhp version. I assume the car you are looking at is a diesel, but if it is petrol (I'm not too familiar with petrol avilability) it is not one with the common wet belt issue.

If you still have the warning, ...

Re: C5 Aircross Dificult to get into Reverse

Re: C5 Aircross Multiple Warnings

My suspicion is an ABS sensor fault, an ABS rotor fault or a break in the ABS wiring.

Re: C5 Aircross loud sound on cold engine

How old is the car? Is it still under warranty? If so I suggest a visit to the dealer.
