I’ve helped my dad rebuild a POS KB280DT Isuzu’s engine multiple times…

I dont think you should slander Isuzu because two clueless Boneheads repeatedly failed to rebuild the engine properly, repeatedly.

Mine has 434000km and I've never touch the motor.

But then I dont let Boneheads near it....

Unfortunately I don't believe any of those fall in my mechanical ability. I have rebuilt the engines on a Ford Bantam, Mazda MX6 and Opel Kadet GSE. The ones mentioned above are out of my brain range.

Yes, the vehicles I listed are very high tech compared to the Opel GSE....in facr the Terios, Jimny and Scorpio have Merc S-Class levels if technical sophistication....Canbus, Drive by Wire, multiple sensors and servos and mindboggling electronics....
