If you like too play with diesels, adjusting your own valves is an ideal place to put some time and energy. Owning one of these cars isn't such a good deal if you have to pay someone else too do every little thing. Might as well just drive a Camray or Subaru as its a whole easier too find someone competent to work on them.
