See previous re person who got 620,000km (375,000 miles) before the auto gave out.
No mention of anything serious going wrong with the engine.

Usual things that do go wrong with engine are the water pump, and the alternator.
(They both went on mine around 60k miles)
Both can be considered normal wear items.
Alternator can be rebuilt using higher quality parts than OEM, water pump is easily and cheaply replaced.

Read some previous posts, the general theme is to look after the engine by replacing the filters, oils, etc. on a regular basis.

Suggest you ring around and find a good tuning place that can hook up their scanner; it will make it so much easier.

Hi Fokes
I have heard about a lot of these engines having real problems with timing chain. Anyone know how we can fix this before it knackers the whole engine?
Mine is coming up to 50K, just passed its 1st MOT OK. 2007 import. I also heard that the imports don't have the same problems, anyone heard of this?
Comments greatly appreciated.

Replaced air and fuel filters 2 months ago.Drives great and has good power,gains speed up hills doing 100kph.Did a big trip around North Island a few weeks ago,no problems what so ever and managed just over 700kms on a tank of diesel.I wonder if its a glow plug problem or a sensor.Thanks

Has the air and fuel filter been replaced lately . seems very strange to be worse when its cold . When its running ok dose it have plenty of power or seem sluggish ?
