2.2L HDi I4 (DW12 BTED4)
Diesel
Operate the electric sliding doors multiple times on both flat ground and an incline. | Note: The drive cables and motors are prone to snapping or burning out; replacement is labor-intensive and parts are expensive in New Zealand.
Accelerate hard in 3rd gear from low RPM to check for 'Anti-Pollution Fault' warnings. | Note: Common on the 2.2L HDi due to blocked FAP (DPF) filters or failing swirl flap actuators (diaphragms).
Listen for 'clunking' or 'knocking' sounds when driving over speed bumps or uneven seal. | Note: The 807 is heavy; front suspension bushings and drop links wear rapidly, often requiring replacement every 40,000km.
Test every button on the COM2000 steering column unit, including indicators and wipers. | Note: The integrated switch unit is a known failure point; flickering headlights or non-canceling indicators signify a failing unit.
Standard synthetic oil change and pollen filter replacement to protect the HVAC blower motor.
Comprehensive fuel filter change and brake fluid flush; inspect front brake discs for thinning due to vehicle weight.
Critical timing belt (cambelt) and water pump replacement; failure of the DW12 belt usually results in total engine destruction.
Check Eolys (DPF additive) fluid levels; low levels will trigger limp mode.
Lubricate sliding door tracks with dry silicone spray to prevent motor strain.
Clean the EGR valve to prevent carbon buildup and rough idling.
Inspect the crankshaft pulley (harmonic balancer) for perishing rubber.
Verify drain holes under the windscreen scuttle are clear to prevent ECU flooding.
Estimated repair costs if issues arise
High priority every 10 years or 100k km to avoid engine failure.
Common issue if used primarily for short NZ school runs.
Usually requires specialist Euro-mechanic labor rates.
