Hello !
I've searched the internet to find the best/worst years of Hino in terms of reliability but couldn't find much. I did found a few threads being answered by hino mechanics on here which is great ! I think my question will also benefit a lot of others so thanks in advance !
We've owned 4 Hinos FB1817 (1998,1999,2002 and 2004) for around 15 years now and found them really realiable but they no! However , they are now at 400k+ km and getting pretty rusty and i've read that Hino will stop making trucks I would like to buy newer Hinos. I've heard lots of bad things about the new DPF and DEF systems.
(Our trucks have 20 foot dry boxes on them and can be driven by anyone, its the regular liscence)
Here it is :
Could you please tell me which years of hinos are the least reliable and which are the more reliable ?
In what year hino started putting DPF on trucks ?
Did it take a few years for these dpf systems to be reliable ?
Do specific years have specific problems ?
Is there a few years to avoid ?
Thanks a lot !
