2.5 Diesel. Your thoughts

Post by African Adventures »

Hi almal, my vriend is opsoek na n holux en het my gevra om by julle te hoor wat julle dink van die 2.5 diesel?

Hy ry omtrent 2500km per maand so wil ook kostes in gedagte hou.

Dankie

I have the 2,5 diesel Hilux.


Rather get the 3.0, for the following reasons:
- more oomph;
- BETTER fuel consumption than the 2,5

I had a 2.5 sc after 3 l dc . Lovely construction or slow speed bakkie. Passing vehicles is frustrated.

The 2.5d is bit rougher running ounding than the 3.0d and a bit more economy and 3 power outputs depending on year
102 bhp, (mk5 and early mk 6) 120 bhp mk6 with bonnet intercooler scoop and newest 144 bhp, mk6/7 which also has the same maximum torque as the 3.0d but peakier.
