G'day all,
Well, we weren't quite ready to look at updating just yet, but the local Toyota dealership has just got a 2009 NT GLS 3.2 auto in with 172,000 km on the clock, so we are going in tomorrow to check it out. It has a tow bar, MM alloy bullbar, roof rails with 2x cross bars and an electric brake controller. Oh, and its silver.
I have read a bit about the oil coolers cracking, so I am aware of that, and I know about the timing chain tensioner recall, but is there anything else to look for with an NT? (service history etc are a given) Most of my reading seems to reveal that they're a pretty solid vehicle, and that there is very little that goes wrong with them. Even then, failures seem to be pretty rare.
I am looking at adding my awning to the current roof rails and cross bars, but I think that I read the factory roof rails aren't real strong. Will they doo for the next 12 months or so until I can upgrade them?
Sorry if these questions have been asked before, but I'm obviously searching the wrong terms.
Anyway, here's hoping its as good as it looks in the pictures. Wish us luck.....
