Buying a 240d that won't go over 15
Hi all,
I'm new to this forum and I am thinking about buying a 1980 240d with a manual transmission. Everything on it seems to be in good shape the only issue is it will not go over 15-20 mph. I thought I would ask here for some advice and see if it may be a common problem or a simple fix. I'm new to these cars so any help will be appreciated. Thank you

We need to get more info.
With manual transmission 20 mph would be high idle on high gear?
