2007 3 litre turbo diesel Nissan patrol wagon

There has been, mainly holes blown in no 3 or 4 piston. Although there is sill plenty getting around that have had no problems, some with high mileage.have a look on the patrol forum website plenty of info there.

If its a 2007 I am guessing it is the "Common Rail " engine which had very few problems .
If it has a service history that will tell a story. If you can find out its towing history that will help
Many of these cars were used to tow weights sometimes beyond what they were capable of and thats when the engine damage was done

The common rail ones still go bang. Have a good read through patrol4x4.com. Particularly the ZD30 sub-forums of the GU section.

What about the chassis cracking, the rear door cracking, the front diff housing cracking, the compressor pulley bearing going noisy, intercoolers leaking and.......
apart from thoses thing and the engine they are fine.

Hi Spanderman, I'll attempt to give you a clear answer. The 3 Litre engine has had it's problems, it can self destruct. Without pre judging the vehicle your looking at given it has already done 200,000KM's the thousand dollar question is how many KM's does it have left? 50,000?? As mentioned above check the service history, was it doing fairly heavy towing? One can only try to do normal due dilligence on the vehicle to ascertain if it will be a viable purchase going forward? Have the vehicle tested, engine tested etc and consider the purchase price as you are buying a vehicle that has the potential to cost money as it gets toward the end of it's life span.
