“It's a love/hate relationship. ”

written by yintong5 on 21/05/2010

It's a love/hate relationship.



A couple of months ago I decided to get rid of my old (but reliable) 3.1TD Trooper and buy a 3.0TD. Although I was aware of the reliability/recall issues I figured buying a well-cared for model with a reasonably low mileage, regularly serviced, with all the recall work done and masses of paperwork, I would be on to a winner.



So far it's been in the garage 3 times; once for a failed injector (out of Isuzus' warranty) once for a new alternator and once again for the injector. It is a pity that Isuzus' legendary reliability was literally shot to pieces with this engine and it doesn't matter what people might say about it being 'ground breaking' technology (for the time) because it also has to get up and go every day.



Inside it's spacious for all my needs and tows our caravan with complete ease and confidence (though not that much confidence in the actual engine).



I look at the reliability and I hate it. I get in it to drive and I just adore it; it is certainly a marriage that will go the distance though, it seems, we will always have our differences.
