Greetings. The automobile mentioned above was purchased through Copart on May 22nd. The driver's side of Cat N sustained damage. The bonnet, driver's side door, rear door, rear quarter panel, driver's side tailgate, and battery have been replaced. The vehicle consistently exhibits warning indicators related to driving stability, flat tire, fog light irregularities, and parking sensor malfunctions. In recent times, there has been the introduction of a restraint system. Prior to this, I had engaged the services of an individual to do maintenance on the diesel particulate filter (DPF). Additionally, I had an issue where water was infiltrating the inside of the vehicle via the passenger side tailgate during the winter season. More recently, I have seen another occurrence of this issue.

Thank you for your correspondence. I have obtained a diagnostic report from a nearby automotive repair facility, which incurred a cost of £59. Unfortunately, I am unable to provide you with specific details on the fault codes identified in the report.

If one intends to retain ownership of the vehicle, it might be advisable to invest in a code reader, since it has the potential to provide significant cost savings.

It is important to note that in the absence of codes, our ability to accurately determine outcomes would be speculative, perhaps resulting in significant financial implications.

If the expense of repairs becomes very high, I intend to consider trading it in.

The potential causes for the activation of the traction light and flat tire warning may be related to the ABS wheel speed sensors. To investigate this issue, it is advisable to inspect the ABS rings located at the outer end of the drive shafts for any signs of shiny spots. This observation suggests that there is friction occurring between the sensor and the ABS ring.
Upon conducting my own examination, I saw a conspicuous gleaming area.

In recent times, there has been the emergence of a restraint system. Prior to this, I had enlisted the services of an individual to do maintenance on the diesel particulate filter (DPF), while also addressing the issue of water leakage inside the passenger side tailgate during winter. More recently, I have encountered another matter of concern.
