Northamptonclay Posted July 11, 2013 Report Share Posted July 11, 2013 Poor service intervals compared to the competition Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bradders Posted July 11, 2013 Report Share Posted July 11, 2013 I have a 2012 D-Max Utah....... On a motorway at 70 I get about 36mpg.....its a bit short of what's advertised but hey does any vehicle do the advertised mpg. Service intervals are 2 years or 12k miles..... All in all I am pleased with the truck and would buy another..... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bradders Posted July 11, 2013 Report Share Posted July 11, 2013 (edited) There is a fix for the fuel filter, I had mine done......if its still a problem get in touch with your dealer and get it replaced under warranty. Had it done and no problems since, warning light usually come up after about 3k miles. Had two before it was fixed properly with a new system, no problems since.

stet Posted July 13, 2013 Author Report Share Posted July 13, 2013 Cheers for replys, I had a go in one yesterday. I liked it but it was quite a bumpy ride even on a smooth motorway. Dealer said it might have too much air in the tyres whats yours like does it bounce. Testing an amorok tomorrow. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bradders Posted July 13, 2013 Report Share Posted July 13, 2013 You have to remember that you are driving a truck not a car. Mine is fine on the motorway.....Country lanes with pot holes is different, it is a bit lively.....To be fair, if you want a car like ride buy a car.......all in all, I drive about 20k miles a year motorway and farm tracks, you have to compromise if you want an all rounder.....I drove most pickups before settling on my D-Max Utah.....but you have to be comfortable in what you want to use it for......

ferguson_tom Posted July 16, 2013 Report Share Posted July 16, 2013 Just remember most pick ups are designed to carry at least 1 ton so the suspension with no weight on is a bit rigid. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
al4x Posted July 16, 2013 Report Share Posted July 16, 2013 suspension is something you get used to, personally I like the fact that mine rides as it does, it can be a little bouncy if you are really critical and it isn't like a car but I far prefer it to the discovery I get made to drive occasionally.
