- Overheating & Head Gasket Failure (Series 4)Serious
The 2.5 DI-D engine in the Series 4 is notoriously sensitive to cooling system health. Blocked radiators or failing water pumps quickly lead to overheating and head gasket failure, which can sometimes result in cracked cylinder heads.
- Suction Control Valve (SCV) FailureModerate
The SCV on the fuel pump frequently fails, causing erratic idling and stalling.
- Chassis RustSerious
Like many pickups of this era, the chassis is highly susceptible to structural corrosion if not protected.
