Thread: 2009 Colorado Engine Problem

Get the injectors checked. Also, anything knocking is generally getting rooted when it comes to engines. Fix it sooner rather than later and the pocket will thank thee. Also, mates don't let mates buy colorados, or rangers.

If you put a "F" in front of Ranger you get a "Franger" which also goes around a penis.

I'd rather drive a Franger than a Toyota, any day!

My girl friend got that problem on her Colorado. Quoted 4k$ at the Holden dealership, the local diesel mechanic fixed it for $3.6k.

Oh dear. Can you get counselling for that yet. It ll be on a list someplace hang in there !!Toyota hater recommending a Toyota fix for a Colorado. Double meaning right there. Lol
4 k repair that's screaming for a new engine combo. Should fit a Toyota mtr to it

OK. After reading that thread, maybe I should quit my 2011 Hilux D4d double cab/canopy Hilux. Just clicked 97000kms. Two onr. Full Toyota service records available including injector seals etc etc . Being reserviced this Thursday.

Why ?


The Hilux is a proven performer and reliable

Nothing wrong with their economy either

I get an average of 7.7litres per 100 km


and just over 800km a tank


That's an average of 50% town and the other half on open country roads

No way I'd change to another brand.

I love my Hilux!! Brother had a Colorado and quit it with similar issues to those mentioned above. Simply thinking of $$ as I get older, though truck always serviced on time.

After halfway through 2010 the injector seals no longer need to be done

I like your Great Wall and the Foton is not bad?
