Has anyone else experienced excessive running costs for their Multipla?
Mine has just been recovered as the water pump looks to have seized and potentially taken out the cam belt, it was still running when the other half stopped it so fingers crossed its not completely shot.
I had the belt changed a year or so ago and im convinced we did the pump too, whether that will make any difference witht he manufacturer of the pump only time will tell.
However the main reason for the thread is the costs of runing this car. Its an 05 jtd with 65k on the clock.
So far i have had to replace 2 front suspension arms, front discs and pads, complete new rear brakes, exaust back box, all handbrake cables, clutch and dual mass flywheel.
I think its a disgrace to be honest, this is the newest car i have owned and its cost me more money than a van i have had for ten years.
Anyone else suffered the same fate?
