[QUOTE="Reeks, post: 294569, member: 1557"] [url=http://Www.patrol4x4.com]Www.patrol4x4.com[/url] There is a list (over 200 cars long) of users who's 3.0 Di (and some Crd) have 'Grenaded' They are the worst engine to ever go into a 4wd in my opinion. If you add an egr block, dawes valve and pull all the intake assembly off and clean it properly they are semi reliable. If you want a serious 4wd for a good price, a Gq patrol 4.2 with aftermarket turbo can be had for 10-15k with accessories as a bonus. They are as strong (probably stronger) than the Gu (gu has weak 5th gear, weak spring mount tops) My Gq 4.2 gets 11-12km/100 on 35" tyres and is my home away from home when I'm out west. Goes like a vy wagon when you need it to (110km up the hills from Bathurst to Lithgow without pushing it) Regards Reeko [/QUOTE]
