WK2 2012-13. Issues to look for? Hi all, new to the forum. As the heading says I’m looking at 2012-13 GC’s, 3.6 petrol or 3.0 diesel for everyday driving plus a little off road fun. I’m a little worried though with so many horror stories going around. What are the main things to look out for? Are they expensive to service? Thanks in advance for any advice.

I have a 2013 Diesel 100,000k's no issues. Check the service history, get under it and look for damage. if you know someone who has one take them with you to check it out.

Thanks for the info. I don’t know anyone with one. Geez, I don’t know anyone with a 4x4 of any kind. Maybe I need to find some new friends 🤔

I recently purchased a 2012 GC Laredo, 3.6 Petrol with quadra lift. It only had 24,000 kms on it when I brought it and I paid $22,000 if that helps you at all with your search. The factory upgrade of the quadra lift (along with the low kms) was a huge factor in my purchase.
It is quite good on fuel on the highway for a large V6 @ 10L/100 kms. I have only ventured off road once and it was EXCELLENT. We took it down a step snotty rocky with loose dirt hill, put it in rock mode (low range and highest suspension setting) and I actually had to accelerate to get it down. Traction was THAT good. Coming from an AWD Territory I'm loving having real 4WD and the extra ground clearance. I have no issues to report so far. |
