Hey guys - I am thinking about buying a used CRD. I almost bought a new one last summer, decided to buy something else and I am now regretting my decision. I really want a 4wd and I am a diesel nut. I should have bought a new one. Oh well!

So anything in particular I should look for on a used CRD? I am leaning towards an 06' as I recall a trans issues with the 05? Any thoughts appreciated.

Thanks,

Shaun

The Trans Issue seems to be a fuel delivery issue on some CRDs but it is definitely not the "death" of the CRD. SunCoast also has an aftermarket TC/Shift Kit solutions that actually improves the CRD. You can read an "Epinion" of mine that might help some too. Great Vehicle with rising fuel costs, ect.
