Got completely standard vp ute v6 t5 daily...fixing all those vn-p quirks.
Feels so damn been wondering how it's going to handle hills with 3/4 tonne of gravel/sand/dirt/tip runs for house reno duties.
It's in decent shape idles ok,doesn't use up oil/water & even gets decent fuel economy...no fault codes.
Seems noisey mechanically to me but been told they're usually a lot worse...sounds like a drill & tapping tins at idle..took belt off to be sure it's from engine not to rule out alt & tensioners etc.
Could engine harmonics be setting off knock sensor?
Or just got granny factory memcal tune?
