I have a 99T Turbo Saloon with 37k on the clock and completetely standard.

Are there any known problems with the MY99 model as mine is now knocking at low revs when it is cold.
I have read stories of piston and big end problems, do these apply to the MY99?

Thanks.

Piston slap shouldn't be an issue as it will be the phase 2 engine - Does the noise go away when it's warmed up?

I havent noticed it when it is fully warm but I can still hear it several minutes after a cold start.

There was a problem with cambelt tensioners 'clicking' when cold.
