I've just bought a 6 year old peogeut 206 1.9 diesel from a trader, it's just had a full service and MOT but i'm unfamiliar with the car. After a hundred miles or so the rev counter has stopped working... i don't know if this is linked to my other problem that when i press the accelerator (at any speed) there is a loud mechanical noise coming from the engine that doesn't sound quite right, possibly a "roaring" noise. I've not had a diesel before, so do not know whether this is something to expect. I do have 6 month warranty with the car but firstly i would like to know if it is safe to drive (as 200 miles away from home) and also need a car a lot in the next few weeks so don't want to take it back to the dealer unless necessary. Any ideas will be gratefully received. Thanks.

don't chance it..............call the dealer to see if your warranty will allow a local dealer or reputable service tech. to check it out.
