I am currently dead set on getting the Fortuner 2.7 VVTi gas. I've been reading with much interest the thread on the Toyota D4D engine woes and am just wondering if there is something I really need to know about the Fortuner Gas variant.

I just don't want to make a ~P1.4M (inc insurance, LTO etc) buy decision that I would regret later.

So aside from the issue with the ride quality (tagtag) is there anything else negative I need to know specially about the Toyota Fortuner 2.7 VVTi variant? (ie engine performance, maintenance, build quality)

I would appreciate your views on this one...
