Hi,
I am going to look at a 95 GQ 4.2 turbo diesel, it has done 300,000kms, and its a turbo tech turbo set up.
Just wondering what I should look for when inspecting it, or should I not even bother, as engine will let go on soon??
They are asking 13k, its got a few extras (muddys, lift, bar etc)

All info welcome!!!!

Cheers,

Hi Abbo,

I'd appreciate it if you could head over the the intro section and say g'day, we like folks to say g'day before asking for advice.

I have removed your duplicated thread in the other section as you should get a response here.

As for your question ---- The TD42 is a very strong motor and if the car is in good nick then will give you long service. I would not hesitate buying a TD42 with a turbo at 300,000kms. I fitted mine at 350,000.

I think 13k is a little steep though.

Please go and say gday.

Cheers MR
