Most of these utes are made in Thailand these days, so quality is so so.Most common rail diesels have their own issues, unless you have very good fuel, and a 2nd fuel filter, expect to be digging into your pocket on a regular basis.

Justa6 Member 214 Member For: 15y 11m 13d Posted 14/11/13 09:46 PM Share Posted 14/11/13 09:46 PM Though I have been told by a Nissan mechanic to go to the D-22 It's funny you say that, I had our local Nissan mechanic say the same. "get a 22, the d40 will be back with problems". So I did, I've got a 22 and my dad has a d40. The d40 is twice the dual cab the 22 is. Sits on 120 no drama, beautiful to drive long distance. The 22 is a lot more ruggered, and it should be, they are a bloody old Ute. In saying that, the d40 has done a clutch, head, and a lot of little problems. I explain it as "the best dual cab we've ever had and the worst.

But still not cheap.. Quite often we run 12-14L/100km in our work utes..

I would be lucky to see 500km on 72litres of diesel. 2012 model auto. 60% of driving on cruise control Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/86772-nissan-navara-d40/page/2/#findComment-1440370 Share on other sites More sharing options...
