This blog was the first hit I got while looking for info.
And I must say the revo is loaded with features that the local firm does not offer and drive like a dream on we so called shiet diesel and is quiet and give 700 km to the thank
Nobody could catch me on market hype and he say they say stupidNess. I have a email from toyota (not trinidad) stating that it does not need ultra low sulphur diesel. 500 ppm is the max and we fall in that bracket nicely.

I have not had for every long it's just going into 2 months at the end of this month.
If I get any issues come up, rest a sure you will hear about it.
Like I notice one issue as you mention your D4D gives you 780km. It looks like the estimated range is not accurate because when I fill up it says 700km.
I never ran the tank under 1/4 but I figure it will do about 850 km.

Seems like the requirements for the New 2.8 and the old 3.0 are the same.
If that is the case then why not the new model?

Btw I can confirm that the 3.0 engine in the revo sold by Toyota has the EGR blanked out.
I spoke to a Toyota mechanic who informed me. Also I went to the showroom and noticed this for myself

Nope Hinds is juss a kunny.
I spent a good few days doing research as to why some parts of the world are supplied with the old 3l engine.
Ford did not understand third world counties still have bad diesel that's why in trini loads of rangers was shutting down. Ford Trinidad had to by pass the sensor for that reason and having to get a heavy T I blanked ford.
Toyota on the other hand knew about our diesel and the 3l is a proven engine, the 2.8 is yet tobe proven.
Plus I had own a second hand Hilux before for 10 years without any problems, but it was a 2.2 gas engine which is a never done engine.
