| Year: | 1999 | |
| Modification: | 235V04 | |
| General comments: | Fantastic vehicle and no problems in 5.5 years of ownership, other than above. | |
| Problems: | Engine keeps cutting out due to the fluctutations of the tickover revolutions. I have been told that the engine runs hotter than other models, mine is a GDS. Can you tell me what sparkplug I should use. At present it is fitted with Mitsubishi recommended plug NKG BKR6EKUC. |
