Where there has been gains in fuel consumption over the 1KZ-TE you will loose in expensive repair bills for a lot of people. Like so many other countries, Australia seems to find it hard to produce to the spec, quality fuel that the new generation of common rails diesel engines require for the consumer to get payback out of their investment. While the 1KD-FTV looks great on paper as Mick has pointed out, in real world terms it maybe the engine that destroys some of Toyota's reputation that took so long to build. Have always loved LC's but on the practical side was heading towards a prado because of better fuel mileage easier to drive around town ,would'nt be towing a large van and all the other practical crap you have to consider, when i came across this on a site talking about the difference in prado engines: Trying to decide between a turbo diesel cruiser or TD prado around the 2002 vintage to be able to get up the bush on weekends but sadly because of family time restraint won't be traveling across the country any great distance ,
