G'day.
Thought I'd say hi, and do a quick intro.
Just bought a 1999 406 diesel (manual) with reasonable ks to have a break from the cold (otherwise, I commute on motorcycle, and live near Canberra). I've owned a fair few bikes and cars, but this is my first Frenchy.
Anyway, quick coupla questions:
1. How do I work out what engine the car's running? I read that it changed near the build date (I think its build is Jun '99)?
2. There's a bit of oil(?) leaking all over the lower part of the intercooler, and the fins are proper clogged. Any hints to clean this out? Tried a tooth brush, and made it worse; just jammed all the gunk inside the fins!
Cheers, Slob
