Some of you may recall my friend's Xantia that threw its cambelt the other week. She's now replaced it with an S-reg Xara AX 1600 petrol manual.
The rev counter doesn't work at all, which is no great issue, but I thought if it is easy to fix then I could earn some brownie points.
Is the rev counter cable driven or electronic ?
Is it a known problem ?
Obviously the fix will depend upon what's wrong, but from your experience can you suggest whether it is likely to be a pig to fix or pretty straight forward.
I don't want to spend ages fixing it, 'cos it's no real loss without it, but if it's gonna be a quickie then I'll do it.
Also, on a general note, does this car have any typical known problems ?
Thanks in advance.
