Mine ended up being caused by blocked oil gallery ( engine only had 50k kms on it after I had it rebuilt initially). Regular oil changes and maintenance are a must, especially on diesels. Our 2010 prad now has >500k kms on it, serviced every 10k kms and still going strong
@@sophtayl how the oil gallery blocked?? Funny enough the owner before me serviced the car regularly..but the mechanic never checked inside of the sump ( which I didn’t know either ) it’s a must for 1kd.
I had a similar issue in my hiace van. Tick tick tick 💥
Did you have to rebuild the engine?
@@leridotte the guy I sold it to insisted on driving it and put a rod through the block. He ended up putting another engine in it

Possible blown piston due to injector issues and clogged oil pickup
Yes man - good diagnosis
Should have stuck with the Pajero instead of joining the ranks of boring dual cab utes
Maybe! I like to change things around and try new thing! What could be boring for you could be interesting for others…
