pramlal's review of Vauxhall Vivaro 1.9DTi LWB

“ENGINE FAILURE”

★☆☆☆☆

written by pramlal on 30/04/2013

BOUGHT A USED 1.9CDTI FAMILY BUS A YEAR AGO KEPT ALL THE SERVICES REGULAR.ON A VACATION IN DECEMBER 2012 HAD A BREAKDOWN 300 KILOMETERS AWAY FROM HOME. HAD THE VEHICLE TOWED INTO GENERAL MOTORS IN THE EAST-RAND. EVER SINCE GENERAL MOTORS CANNOT FIND A PROBLEM.GUESSING INJECTORS AND FUEL PUMP, THEN ELECTRICAL PROBLEM, THEN BACK TO DIESEL PROBLEM TO RE SERVICE INJECTORS AFTER 5 MONTHS SAY TO ME ENGINE SEIZED.I THINK THAT THE MANUFACTURERS/SERVICE PROVIDER OF THIS VEHICLE IS INCOMPETENT IN TERMS OF REPAIRING THE SAID VEHICLE.THE SALES TEAM MUST DISCLOSE THE COSTING OF REPAIRS AND HOW EXPENSIVE IT IS TO MAINTAIN THIS BUS eg. ENGINE RECONDITION IS R85000,00 AND NEW R123000,00 THIS IS A RIP OFF.

terrible vans not reliable have had one for 2 years and nothing but hassle with injectors and fuel pump , Vauxhall should be held responsible as they are not fit for purpose or relyabilty, they loose power , had a Toyota haice for 5 years all I did was change oil and tyres and will be going back to one

join the club, exactly the same hapened to me and i also used a GM Dealership on the east rand, they dont know what thet are doing with the cars. its not the car that is bad it is the workmanship from GM due to they dont have trained staff for those vehicles, mine cost me close to R200 000 up to now since my motor broke down and that was all caused by n faulty fanbelt that GM installed.
