I think the BK diesel has been proven reliable. Not prone to the same ignition pump failure as the CKs since they changed to a Densi CRDi pump from their previous cam-driven setup.

The BK diesel models also use a different transmission. The V5AWF is a Toyota-Aisin design instead of the Mitsubishi-Nissan-Jatco V5A51 used in the CK and the petrol BKs. I believe this is of minor importance, since the Jatco transmission wasn't unreliable, though some literature rates the new Aisin transmission as "good for 400k kms", while the previous Jatco unit as "good for 360k kms".

Not sure if it's also solved the brake-master-accumulator issues, but I haven't heard about it in any BK groups.

Long story short Mitsubishi learned from all the weak points of the CK and basically solved those in the BK. Even the A/C vents hold up better.

Napa window shop lang sa online. Hehe.
Nag umpisa sa mga LC na grabe ang mamahal kahit luma. Same era nitong BK nasa millions pa din mga 10years+ model.

Kaya parang bargain tuloy ito. Salamat sa details Dr. Kamiya. Reliable din pala. Weird na ang baba sobra ng resale value. Supply and demand siguro.

Yung injectors seals ang medyo maaga bumigay pero mga after 15 years pa yan or more. Mura lang naman online kapag need palitan. Or as preventive maintenance use Diesel Kleen by Power Service or same fuel additive.
