newbie here
 

Just thought I'd say hello.

I've just bought myself a cheap 9-3 2.2 diesel. 53 plate.

Needs a bit of work but I enjoy a challenge.

It wouldn't start of the key when I had it , so I changed the starter but turned out it was the battery. Starts well now .

The last owner thought it would be a good idea to spray paint all the exterior plastics which I can live with but he left over spray everywhere. So been buffing it and looks nice now.

Got a rattle from the engine too, not sure if it's the engine or aux item like the bottom pulley, or bearings in alternator or something like that.
