Indeed. Quite costly and not honest if not stated by the seller. But, let's not jump to conclusions, it may as well be something else. But in any case, should one buy a mondeo which is knocking? Simply no.

RalphG is on a distinguished road
My GF has a Mondeo Mk3 estate, which we use to transport the dogs. We've just bought a Vito van to replace it.

Anyway, when she bought the Mondeo it was gutless. No power at all. Lost speed going up hill. Drank diesel like it only cost 14.99p a litre instead of 149.9p a litre. I tracked it down to a hose that had a split - almost impossible to spot, as its on the inside of a 90 degree bend.

The Mondeos also eat up wheel bearings like nothing else I've driven. This 51 plate has had at least 6 replacement bearings.
