Additional notes
- Chevrolet Captiva 2.0 diesel (VM Motori engine) is known for: injector problems, DPF issues, turbo failures, and automatic gearbox (Aisin) problems. Parts are expensive relative to the car's value. High ownership costs for a budget SUV.
- Any car with 200k+ km requires extra scrutiny. At this mileage: suspension components are worn (bushings, ball joints, shocks), seals and gaskets are hardened, electrical connectors corrode, and major components approach end-of-life. For luxury cars (BMW, Mercedes, Audi) the cost of 200k+ km maintenance can exceed the car's value. Always get a pre-purchase inspection (PPI) and budget 15-25% of purchase price for immediate maintenance.
