It's going to be an issue with any d2 unless there's history of gearbox oil changes or a complete gearbox replacement someone else has paid for - they do crop up but it's often not mentioned in adverts in any case

Other option is to put money into a d3 which doesn't seem to suffer the same box issues being the later 6 speed. Still worth oil change but also requires care making sure the oil going in is the same as what came out (there was a tsb where different oil was recommended for a particular fault but you have to recode the gearbox or it screws it up!)
