delswal 3,819 Posted May 9, 2014 Report Share Posted May 9, 2014 What sort of mileage do the engines achieve before they give up ? i bought one three years ago on a 53 plate , changed the oil twice a year without fail ,now has 121k on the clock, never had any serious problems with it, engine is sound. Its easy for people to knock them if they came across a bad one , same with any vehicle to be fair. But to be honest i would have another navara if this one is anything to go by. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

air gun ant 1,666 Posted May 9, 2014 Report Share Posted May 9, 2014 I admit mine was better when I put general grabbers on it but still, not the best. Before I changed tyres it used to look at wet grass and start sliding! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
jamesS410 106 Posted May 9, 2014 Report Share Posted May 9, 2014 What sort of mileage do the engines achieve before they give up ? I know of at least three people who have had pistons/con rods take a short cut out of the engine with navaras and I know when I was looking for a new truck if you search for navaras on flea bay there is a hell of a market for recon engines for them. Let's just say it convinced me to buy a rodeo instead! 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

belucky 744 Posted May 10, 2014 Report Share Posted May 10, 2014 the fault on the engine is that the bolts/studs that hold the big ends onto the conrods were to small a diameter, thus through time usually 60/70 thousand they begin to stretch thus knocking the big ends out , I drive the early navara 2.5td d22 2001 it has a much stronger motor, mine is now over 170,000 ,if anyones after a navara theres an outfit near to me buys them in with f,,,,d engines ,rebuilds them and modifys the problem and gives you a 2year warrenty on the bottom end ,and hes quite handy price wise, I can pm his number if any ones interested ,Newcastle area Quote Link to post Share on other sites
