Citroen DS3 1.6 VTi Automatic - Spares or Repairs / Project
Selling my Citroen DS3 1.6 VTi automatic as spares or repairs due to an engine/oil-pressure issue.
The car has recently passed its MOT, however it has a low oil-pressure warning once the engine is warm. Oil pressure has been measured at approximately 0.9 bar. It also has an engine management light illuminated which has been on for some time.
The car has been inspected by a garage and I have been advised there is internal engine wear, so it may require significant engine work or potentially a replacement engine. Because of this I am selling it honestly as a project/spares or repairs vehicle rather than as a normal road-ready car.
Known issues
* Low oil-pressure warning when warm
* Oil pressure measured at approximately 0.9 bar
* Engine management light illuminated
* Engine wear / likely significant engine repair required
* Tyres will need replacing
The automatic gearbox is working normally and the car otherwise presents well for its age.
Could be ideal for a mechanic, someone looking for a project, an engine replacement, or for parts.
*Recovery/trailer collection recommended due to the oil-pressure issue but does run normally.
Happy to answer any questions and provide more information about what the garage has said.
