Hi everyone,
As the title suggests, i am looking to purchase an XU40 Kluger in a 7 seat format. I am aware of a small list of troubles the 2GR-FE faces (such as VVTi oil leak, Idler pulley noises and failures, an issue with the water pump, plugs/coils having trouble), but i am also seeking any insight into other things to look for, say with the transmission or electrics.
Considering the age of the model i am looking at (2007-2013), most are in the 150k+ range, with some getting to 300k, so im curious as to how much that would affect the general condition of the car, given the typically famous reliability of Toyotas...Things like the effect of long term caravan/campervan towing on the transmission.
I have seen a post on here regarding an opinion between the AWD and FWD models, but i also wonder if the added rear driveline would present any troubles later in life.
I am aware that this is a pretty open-ended question as the way the car is driven certainly has an affect on the condition also.
Thankyou for your time!
