Great video mate, super nice to see more content on Saxos. I got a 93 000 miles, 1.1 mk2,4 door, petrol as my first car in 2019. To this day I've had some issues with it. My lambda sensor broken off and had to resolder it, I changed my radiator, changed brake rotors and pads, water got thru the radio antena and I sealed it, all bulbs switched, gear knob from a 206 put in, central locking system always breaking, parking sensors put in (I know, I know :D), doors reupholstered, new tail lights, new bluetooth radio and speakers, windshield water pump switched, glove box door hinge broken, parking brakes fail. And I do the regular oil and filters switch.
Wow you’ve done a lot there. Well done mate!
I got the saxo 1.5 diesel, extremely reliable car, engine is bulletproof and extremely economical, i put 60000 kms on it, its at 120k kms i absolutely love it, no rust and dents at all too. Keep it up!
Brilliant yeah the engines are great
Oh, Mr Manning! I remember the Saxo ever so well. Sadly, you didn't quite get to pass that Mustang, but never mind.
Ahh she's doing well Joseph. We'll see how she gets on with her MOT early next year. I know, I think the sun was in my eyes 😉
@@MattysCars , I thought that you may have grown quite attached to her, and it turns out that you have. Yes, the sun must have definitely been in your eyes!
Buying my second saxo on Sunday and I’m only 14 :)) can’t wait to own one again just had a ka and it was absolutely crap
2 Saxos and you’re only 14, you’re doing well!
Had my Saxo 1.1 02 for a year now just had to replace the ignition pack
Great cars!
i need to weld my saxo basically the sills have gone at the rear which is actually weight reduction, my hazard light button is stuck, it has 128k miles, the sunroof handle is loose, there are 2 holes in the rear inner arches, it needs an under bonnet liner, new badges, needs a new passenger headlight and a dent removed from the tailgate, but aside from that its pretty good
Oh no! I'm sealing the underneath my Saxo soon to prevent rust. Plenty to keep you busy then!
You might want to get a cheap Bluetooth OBD 2 reader to read your engine fault codes and diagnose the issue. If I were to guess, I'd say it has a random misfire from a dodgy injector, as is very common on those. It might even just need the battery disconnected for an hour or two to reset everything.
Thanks mate, I may try the battery suggestion. I work for a garage so will probably get it plugged back in to see if anything comes up when everything calms down next year
@@MattysCars What happened in the end?
My Xsara has a leaky sunroof now, left it over Christmas and my boot was full of water. Least I could take a clean bath 😂
Hahahahaha. If I tilt my head under it while driving round a roundabout I can have a nice shower in mine
Great video👍👍 the engine light might just be down to fuel grade?? My old Fiat stilo used to be the same and and still is so my friend says.. If he fills a higher fuel grade the light go off .. But if he just fills normal fuel the light comes on.. So may be the same with your Saxo...
I have a feeling the loose wire of the lambda sensor that was put right has possibly came loose again. Because I only put V power in it most of the time
Get yourself a plug in wireless code reader that will connect to your phone and download app. Cheap as chips on eBay amazon.
Thanks mate, will probably get it read again in work in the new year
I passed my test in March and got a 2001 Citreon Saxo with 34’000 miles on it for £700, other than the few bits of trim falling off (which I fixed) and replacing the old halogen bulb shite with LEDs I’ve noticed that the fuel gauge is abit dodgy and doesn’t always give and accurate reading (if that’s even possible) have you found this with yours? Mine is a Dark blue btw
Well that’s a steal for 700 quid! That’s around what I paid for mine with 65,000 miles on it. I have got that problem but it corrects itself. When the tank is fuller it sometimes says it’s got more fuel than I have. But when it’s got like a quarter of a tank left the gauge will say I’ve got less than what’s in the tank and sometimes bring on the warning light when I’ve still got plenty of petrol. If yours is really bad then maybe a new fuel level sensor? Your Saxo sounds great though
Got mine yesterday 50k miles for 1100 :/ but yeah got the fuel thing to
I can literally fix anything on a saxo by now if you ever need help or want someone to restore it.
I'll bear that in mind
I have the same saxo with me in Serbia, how much does it cost in England?
Cool! In England they cost anything between 200 pound for a bad one to 700 pound for a good one. VTR & VTS models cost more
@@MattysCars I thought such an old car didn't drive in england
@@belizemun There's still a few about
You need a new catalyic converter mate 100 percent
We'll see if anything's said MOT day!
It will fail emisssions bro
I mean yeah if it fails it fails and I'll get it done. Would rather have it diagnosed first. Engine light is off now btw
