Would be easier to tell the things that haven't gone wrong...
Speedo doesn't work.
Heater gone broken.
Rear axle is broken.
Cylinder head is broken.
Charger has busted about 4 times.
Rear lights gone berserk (disco lights).
Gearbox gets uppity with me.
Clutch pedal comes off every now and then.
Water comes thru roof (and if washed in machine, water comes thru everywhere).
Electrical problems (lights flash when engine running)...etc...etc...
Handles great! But that is the only good thing in the car...
405 GRI 1.6 1991, 378.000 km's without engine, gearbox, brake, electrical and so on problems.
The engine and gearbox have never been opened and also the charger and the other main parts are original.
The most driver friendly car I have owned since 1964. Altogether (8 cars) over 1.8 million kilometers, 95% in Finland.
I live in Belgium, have a 405 GR and the only thing that have gone wrong are the brake lights.
I live in england. I took my 1.9 gr auto to France for a day trip. I was quite tempted to leave it there!!!
Never had a problem with my 405,Best car I ever owned
and would buy another without hesitation.
Since I have had my GRI 405 I have never had any major problems except for once.I,unwillingly, took part in a chain crash and my headlights burst, but does that count...
Of course I change the oil every 9k km and the brakes. In conclusion, it's a great car and I would never trade it whatsoever... Have a nice driving, guys!
