Known Issues
|
Diesel Dpf:
|
Diesel Particulate Filter (DPF) regeneration issues, particularly in urban driving, can lead to clogging and warning lights if not addressed.
|
Electrical Gremlins:
|
Common for vehicles of this era, especially related to body control modules, window regulators, and central locking. Loose connections or failing sensors.
|
Suspension Wear:
|
Front suspension components (bushings, ball joints) and rear suspension components can experience wear due to the vehicle's weight and usage.
|
Hdi Injectors:
|
Common rail diesel injectors can be sensitive to fuel quality and may require cleaning or replacement over time.
|
Automatic Transmission Al4:
|
The AL4 automatic transmission can be prone to solenoid issues, jerky shifting, or overheating if not properly maintained or if the hydraulic system has leaks.
