I am in the market for my first Prado - I prefer the D4D over petrol (primarily because of the fuel economy), budget is $40-45k so probably looking at a 2006 GXL. I know there are 50-odd pages of posts on the D4D rattle / injector problems, but its hard to get a sense of how many have problems compared to how many don't. So I haven't really found an answer to my specific question, and at the risk of raising everyone's ire I'd like to start a new thread.
I am seriously put off the D4Ds by the reported problems. I live in Canberra so very cold mornings are common for much of the year.
My question is: am I right to be put off considering a D4D? Were the problems that common and serious that its just too big a risk? Or am I being too alarmist and the risk is small compared to the advantages of the D4D?
thanks in advance
