Serious risks

- DPF clogging: DPF clogs with short trips and low exhaust temps.
- EGR valve clogging: EGR valve accumulates soot over time.
- Car is 20 years old — expect age-related wear: rubber seals, bushings, water pump, AC compressor
- Higher mileage (174,951 km) — check for timing system condition, turbo health, and suspension wear
Additional notes
- Vehicle is 15+ years old. Age-related issues: rubber seals/hoses degrade, electrical connectors corrode, suspension bushings wear. Not specific to any engine, but expect €500-1,500/year in age-related maintenance beyond normal service items.
- Diesel car from before 2018 with very low mileage suggests city-only use — DPF is likely clogged or has been removed (illegal). Check DPF status and EGR condition.
