Thread: D3 RELIABILITY

Consider yourself lucky! My D3 has been off the road - not off road - the most out of about 10 new vehicles I've had. I really think this says a lot about them... even though mine has been in the dealers for about 8 weeks in the 4 years of ownership, I still love it!

Google "voted worlds most unreliable car" and see what you get.

I've had mine for a little over twelve months - 25K or so since I've owned it (92 K when I bought it) - and it starts first thing every day - runs very smoothly and does everything I've asked of it - I never get any fault messages - maybe I'm lucky or it's the way I treat it - but the end result is a big smile on my face. I love my D3 !!!
cheers

Regardless of any faults or issues, still the best car I've ever owned by a country mile.

Worst for me has been a rear suspension failure but the car was still driveable and with some help from rmp's pillowtracks managed to get back down a easy/medium track.

From memory it was a fairly simple fix - although at the time it it looked very worrying.
The trip down the hill was nerve racking and I was only following you!!

Yep, fix wasn't that difficult. More difficult to find than fix I believe. Was an air pipe that had worn through after it had worked loose from a bracket.

Remind me to jack mine up tomorrow and check those pesky air pipes !!!!! - good excuse to try out my "new" 4 ton axle stands that I bought at "Autobarn" a few days ago... $79 for a pair.
