Hi Dan
service interval on belt is 100k or ten years which ever is 1st. so anytime now.
1.8 d was a good strong engine,it out of production now as unable to meet latest emission stage. however you will never strugle for parts.
if flywheel is on the way you will get a loud rattle from cold,when starting or idle, one of the worse things we found was poor batteries/starter motors can lead to flywheel failure, sounds odd but the low cranking speed caused ecsess back lash and damaged em, if you thing it cranks slow, get new battery and get starter stripped and bushes/bearings greased, if its not been abused chances you will be ok, sisterin law has one and its been fine for 3 years she had it.
pm me ur reg number.
