Historical MOT pass rates and DVLA records for 2016 model year cars.
- DPF and EGR FoulingModerate
The 2.4 and 2.8 D-4D engines can suffer soot buildup in the DPF and EGR system if the truck has spent too much time idling, towing at low speed or doing only short trips.
- Rear Leaf Spring and Suspension WearModerate
Hard commercial use, constant towing and rough ground can wear rear leaf springs, bushes and associated suspension components earlier than many private buyers expect.
- Clutch Wear on Towing and Work TrucksModerate
Hilux pickups used for frequent towing, reversing trailers or site work can wear the clutch much faster than their dependable reputation suggests.
