Serious risks

- High-pressure fuel pump: HPFP can develop noise or fail.
- Car is 10 years old — some age-related maintenance expected (seals, suspension components)
- Higher mileage (175,070 km) — check for timing system condition, turbo health, and suspension wear
Additional notes
- 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.
