I would recommend going for the 3.2 (4M41) rather than the 2.5 (4D56). Timing chain vs timing belt. And a whole list of other things. It's the preferred engine to work on in the workshop.
I absolutely love my MN Triton, done 125,000kms, doesn't use any water or coolant at all, just put a brand new heavy duty clutch, oil catch can/EGR block and about to get the intake system all cleaned out, before I take it up north in a few weeks. A mate of mine put 70,000kms on his 2015 MN and in that time he's had to put 3 new motors in it (Under warrenty) in the end he got sick of it and traded it for an MR, luck of the draw I guess but everyone else I know has never had an issue, even my company rep used one and put 450,000kms on it before it was written off, now they gave us a pair of dealer run out MQ's hahaha
Also keen to hear your feedback. The triton is the unsung hero of the 2wd ute market. Great bang for your buck although the 2020 price hike for all used 4wd diesels has hit them as well.
Hi John, How did they install this toolbox? Is that metal framing (under toolbox) bolted to the tube? I'm considering getting new version of triton but I need toolbox tho
+cardudes Ha ha, we love it too!! We actually have a bunch of footage of a few different Pajeros that we will eventually turn into a review. Thanks for watching!!

Nice one! Sometimes you can get the odd lemon. This one went to a new home recently... Pretty sure it'll keep going forever!
Very informative John, Well done mate.

How are you liking it mate?

I have a 2012/13 Triton Glx-r Mn have had no issues. Bought it with 75,000km and now have covered 170,000km plus.
Top review! Keep them coming
What's the location of the review?
Lots of different places. Burralow Creek, Upper Colo, Wheeney Creek, Vic High Country, Mt Hotham.
I 'chipped' my MN GLR and it's great now.
the ml 3.2td triton is so much better, and they don't blow their engine
Yep the 3.2 is a great engine

profesional review
PLS DO A REVEIW OF YOUR PAJERO!!!!!! I LOVE THAT THING!

On The Dirt ok. can't wait! :)
From your perspective, Ausie, how reliable is the Triton/L200 compared to the Hilux and D-Max?
Very, my rep used one and put 450,000kms on it before it was rear ended and written off, mind you it was mostly highway driven
Triton has an enviable reliability reputation. I would go with a Mitsubishi if you want trouble free motoring every time!
are you sure thats 400nm @200rpm? i seem to only find specs that say 350nm
The Automatic model is tuned to 350nm, and the manual has 400nm.
engine overheating problems
So I've heard
No problems with mine which is 2012 MN
I read an article that is verbatim with your words ?? who wrote what ?
Darren Knight where did you read the article? It was probably the article we published when we released the video.
Or if you are from South Africa a Bakkie yeaaahhhhhhhhh.
its for driving on the road and hauling cargo
2.5 is an upgrade on the 3.2 deisel haha yeah OK mate
And glxr isn't just auto
2.5 eats the 3.2.
@@henrybrewer1083the 3.2 is the best engine that's ever been in a Triton
