new 2.3 diesel owner Liverpool

[scousersteve]

Just bought a J reg 2.3 on ebay for £920 after having a bidding rush of blood to the head, been driving it for a week nd cant wait for a bit of snow to show off in, my first frontera or 4x4, I was scared I might be buying a money pit but the body os solid and the engien although its done 177k miles and is a bit noisey at low revs seems to be running ok had to drive it from reading to liverpool and it didnt miss a beat. the spare tyre doesnt droop either. I welcome any advice help or feedback

Hi
Welcome to the Frontera Owners Group
all the diesels are quite noisey at first start (especially when it's cold)
and at low revs
£920 is a good price for a 2.3 alltho i paid £950 for my 1995 2.8tdi

advice .....don't use 4wd on tarmac!!!!!!!!!

and here

hope this helps

welcome to the site

but i am a manc , we have a large team in the northwest.

So have a look round the 2.3 forums

first advice change all filters fuel air oil

second check antifreeze make sure its 50%

check all hoses for leaks

check gearbox and axle levels

gearbox tops up with normal engine oil

axles HP90

and buy your bits off bumptj yet another scouser
