As the title suggests, anybody have experience with these? 165k’s. Had my lunch cut on a 2011 model that left me a bit miffed, now looking at on of these. Comments/advice appreciated
Cheers

I’m no mechanic but a mate has a 2009 4x4, it’s good. They’re a good model and I think the same as yours but 2x4.Quote:

Is it a 2.8? I think they had a bit of trouble with the engines using oil, a few were replaced.
The shape before, the RC Colorados have all Isuzu running gear and are pretty bullet proof, parts are cheap as you get them through Isuzu. I've got a 2010 or 11 4x4, can't remember, and it has been a good truck.
Personally I'd skip the model you're looking at and either get an earlier one or a newer shape one.
I've got the 2.8 2014. Same as the 2013
Average about 55000km a year in it. Serviced on the button every 10000km.
The only issue I've had was the rear diff imploding at 160000km. Its a common issue apparrently.
Bloody comfortable to drive.
My Dads got a 4wd one around that age he has had from new, got about 120k on it now.
He chipped his fairly soon after getting it and has had no problems with it he regularly tows with his.
got a 2016 4x4 one, goes great.
Nice, that’s what I wanted to hear, thanks for your comments.Went through with the purchase this morning and got 12mth warranty and service thrown is as well. 2.8l auto 2wd to replace my ever reliable 06 d22 Navara.
Cheers
customer of mine was on his way to see me in 1 2015 model, no huge weigh on board, no trailer and on the motorway at 100k the rear diff blew out.
i personally have found the manual gearbox gating very sloppy. havent tried a slush-o-matic one
Made for the Italian market???;)Quote:
