chassis is barely painted or anything else now days, so colour has changed, mostly due to lack of underseal!
i would be tempted to stay clear of anything with a DPF that doesnt get out and about for sustained periods. For jersey (30mph tops?) i wouldnt be buying a vehicle with a DPF. on the other hand you can remove them! Cheers James 110 XS Utility 130 Puma Station wagon/camper (in the making) 90 Puma Hardtop |

I faced the small dilemma last month.. Went for the 2.4 110 XS Utility and very happy with it... I got a great deal and easily saved enough to pay for my fuel for the next couple of years...

I think this is in reference to the 2.2 being fitted with a noise blanket/cover as standard. It said this in the original marketing blurb. |

I find the 2.4 Puma quite refined and quite. Any quieter and I'd be able to hear the Mrs. think. Bad enough being able to hear her talk.......

Thanks guys,
If the rumoured additional refinement of the 2.2 is down to an engine blanket then that would seem to be a bit of a non-event as I will fit a Noisekiller kit anyway. Brian Last edited by jerseyman on 2nd Nov 2011 1:08pm. Edited 1 time in total |

Find someone with a 2.2 transit and ask them if the DPF have shagged itself in Jersey as it's the same engine.

Right I have just had the salesman on the phone about the 2.2 DPF issue.
He has told me that the 2.2 is the same engine as in the Freelander 2 and they are not having problems with the DPF on those. Now it is my understanding that it is not - unless the 2.2 engine in the F2 is also a Transit engine? When I queried it he says "that is what he was told by Landrover" Can anyone shed any light on this? Brian |

Wrong - the 2.2 engine is NOT the PSA DW12 from the Freelander 2, it is a Ford Puma TDCi. The same basic engine as before.
