I got mine, with the 1.3L this Saturday. Lovely car. For its price and all the options it has it is excellent
Can you show us how car looks underneath?rust,damage etc... tnx
Yes, I will show it to you but first I have to wash it under and it’s very cold outside. I’m worried some water will freeze and mess a wire. I am waiting for the temperatures to rise a bit so I can be sure the water will not freeze after I wash the car 😁
@@DusterCoolTravels I going to buy new Sandero, so, any informations,movies, pictures of corrosion points at Dacia are important. Thanks & all best.
I bought Mahindra XUV700 its amazing, but still nothing can beat Duster, specially these new gen cars🔥
Mahindra is trash
I ordered one 1.5 diesel on 6/6/2022, still wait for delivery, i came from 13 years of Alfa Romeo 147 1.9 jtdm, i know is a different style of car, but i hope to have a great time with Dacia, i worked in Romania years ago.. at that time Dacia isn't the same of actual, but i back there every year in holiday, and i think is funny that an italian that go in the past in Romania with an italian car, from this year go with a romanian car!
My mom has had dusters since 2014 they are super reliable cars
Congatualtions!🥳
Bee watching your Videos for a Long Time now!!
It's a great Car!
No problems so far with my Logan (85.000km) yet eighther!!
3 ani și 180000,destul în off road.super mulțumit.
Hi ! I ordered mine 2 weeks ago, can't wait to receive it for May / June if all goes well :-) does it have ADBLUE for yours? Thank you for all your beautiful videos !! WELL DONE !
I recently bought a petrol, manual "4wd" 2018 Duster in the UK with approx 65,000 km. It is a lovely metallic orange/gold colour and in very good condition. However it only has a 1.6 litre engine and is fitted with a 6 speed gear box. There are a lot of good things about the car, but the gear change is definitely the worst part of the car for the driver. I think the engine size is a little too small for the car and with the gear box fitted you have to constantly constantly constantly keep working the gear box, especially at relatively slow speeds. For example when taking off, literally as soon as the car starts moving you have to immediately change up to 2nd. (When facing downhill I actually start in 2nd.) Then almost immediately up again to third. Therefore take offs at junctions are slow and I'm regularly beeped by drivers behind because of this. All the ratios between the gears are narrow. Also if you need to overtake or manoeuvre on dual carriageways /motorways / high speed roads when you need acceleration the top two gears are completely gutless. I know other people near me with same year 1.3 litre Dusters and they say the lack of power and gear change issue are even worse. It is therefore best suited for driving in towns (but not city rush hours) and not very busy country roads. It is generally a bit slow, and not really suited to high speed driving (above 75km per hour). Any speed other than slow when off road is also not much fun, and the gear changes difficult to do successfully. So off road is best avoided unless you really have to do it to reach your destination. Nice car overall, but it desperately needs a bigger engine, with a different gearbox and better ratios. Liked your video. You would not enjoy driving my Duster off road.
.
In the manual for this car there is information that not loaded Duster should move from 2nd gear at roads. 1st gear is mostly for off road.
Sorry to say but I think you are not the best driver. You should watch polish offroad channel "terenwizja", there is a few episodes with Duster goes crazy in quite difficult terrain. You dont need to understand language to see how it drives. I had a few versions of Duster in muddy terain and if you know what you doing its great car, of course its not real 4x4 but great for the price.
That engine will never fail you. It is very solid
I just bought new 4x4 Duster after watching reviews like this. Unfortunately no reviews of recent models mentioned the noise made by the adblue pump, which I find very irritating - to such an extent that I may have to cut my losses and sell the car.
I want to buy also Dacia does they work for of road ?
For me it’s not that big of a deal . And I think you’re referring to the fuel pump. It’s the one starting before you start the engine and goes on around a minute after you turn off the engine ?
@@DusterCoolTravels The noise come from behind driver, I thought fuel pump was in engine, which is why others say it is adblue pump. Would make sense since I believe adblue feeds into exhaust, so that's where it would need to be.
@@beneliguns1011 Have not used it off road yet, but all reviews I have seen look good.
Has the noise from the ad blue pump been fixed in the current facelifted version , launched a few months ago ?
Hi , thanks your for the review, much appreciated !! i'm in the market for a new duster this year. 1.5dci 4x4. I see you have the bilstein 3.5cm lifted shock from mudster. Did you add the spacer kit from mudster to lower the engine or did you leave it stock ? Whats your opinion about the lift kit ? thanks alot for your reply. Greetings from Belgium.
I have made 75 000 to my duster in 2 years :)
So far, so good.
I've changed the turbo at 35 000 km (warranty case)
I've changed the driver's seat leather (warranty case)
I've changed the the driver's seat regulating mechanism (warranty case)
I've changed the front brake pads at 60 000 km (my own expenses)
Right after buying the car, I've put the transparent film on the body of the car to protect it from scratches. Right now all the film is scratched, but the paint underneath it is as good as new. So really good investment there.
Oh yes - and all the time problems with adBlue. Last time dealership updated the software for AdBlue computer ... let's hope that it will work fine now. (Previously the main problems were that after filling up the adblue tank, the car still did not understood that adblue tank is filled up and still counted rest kilometers to full stop.
yes, I also had ad blue related problems, at some point, they ve changed the ad blue tank and pump on warranty
@@androns1983 did u also abuse the car or just used it normally on road? Its a lot of malfunctions youdescribed on such a young car....
@@tirgod100 i would not call that 'abuse'. There were a lot of gravel roads, but no such mounta8ns as in DCT videos. Just because we do not have such mountains in Latvia.
But comparing to 'normal people', yes - sometines i drive somewhere where regular crossover driver would walk, not drive.
What year was the duster and what 4×4 version did you have. Your maintenance bill is quite high and in Ireland it could be twice that. COMMENT PLEASE
I drive on auto mode regularly in everyday use onroad, is that bad? can it damage the rear differential?
I drive on auto mode every day too... Should I use 2WD on termac? Do you see difference in for example how many liters of diesel fuel is consumed? (2WD - Auto mode)
@@vaderjk difference in fuel consumption is minimal and unnoticeable. In auto mode driving is more comfortable, acceleration and even gear changing is much smoother. I don’t know that, that’s why I asked. In video he said that he damaged rear differential because of auto mode. I wonder what situation he meant, maybe he reved too much in first gear in off-road
Duster Cool Travels could you answer ?
Salut ! 3 ani face si a mea, dar mai putini km, cumparata de 2 saptamani. Motor K8K-U8 , la pornirea dimineata la rece ( sub 0 ) turometrul oscileaza si se simte in caroserie ca vibreaza. Dupa cateva minute isi revine. "Asa face toate" raspuns dat de dealer si pe tester nu da eroare .Ati avut aceeasi problema ? si cum ati rezolvat-o ? Multumesc !
nu am avut problema asta.
La unele modele senzorul de temperatura de pe rampa de combustibil nu funcționează corect la temperaturi mici. Pe forumul de megane 3 cu același motor 1,5 dci 110, unii au pus o rezistență de 10 komi între cele doua fire care pleacă de la acel senzor, sau au schimbat rampa de combustibil.
Și meganul meu face ca dracu, sub - 7 grade,
@@valyteoc5469 Multumesc ! Apare eroare in bord daca senzorul de temperatura sau supapa regulator presiune nu functioneaza corect ? Nu cunosc motorul , acum incep sa invat 😊
@@cosb578 nu apare absolut nici o eroare.
Salut salut îmi place foarte mult ce faci sunt un mare fan al tău și al dusterului .
Te rog dacă poți sa ma ajuți cu o întrebare care chiar de mult vroiam sa te întreb.
Locuiesc în București. Cum merg cu mașina pe 2wd sau auto ? Și pe autostrada de câteva ori pe an în concediu cum sa merg pe autostrada pe 2wd sau auto ? Și la peste și la vânătoare sa o dau pe auto chiar dacă nu este necesar? Sunt mult prea grijuliu cu mașina și vreau sa fie perfecta... mulțumesc mult și scuze de întrebările multe
Mult succes în continuare și așteptăm să vedem cum este dusterul nou
Did you have any problem with the heater blower resistor? I bought a year old duster and it failed in the first month of ownership and heating fan would only run on full speed but was fixed under warranty. Apparently this is a common problem on dusters and wonder if anyone has found a solution to the problem. I know it’s only a minor problem but a bit annoying as on a lot of cars the resistor lasts almost the lifetime of the car.
Have had this issue with both citroen and peugeot vehicles, though not within one month of new!
Salut, de ce ai schimbat si placa si volanta? Cei de la Service recomanda sa mai las ambreiajul, pentru ca nu va duce mai mult de 45-50k km si o sa trepideze iar la plecarea de pe loc... A inceput pe la 53k km sa trepideze la plecarea de pe loc... in anumite situatii, cand e incalzita.. ,
Pai erau toate negre din cauză ca l-am prăjit 😬
What tires are you running? I have a 2021 facelift duster and was wondering if I can upsize the tires. I know most people are running 215/70/R16, do you gave experience with bigger tires? Can I use bigger tires on 17"? Maybe 215/65/R17?
215/65R17 You can put that size it won’t touch, but I don’t recommend that size from my experience. The diameter is too big and it’s not comfortable, the car actually became rougher to drive especially at high speeds. If you want to get big tires get 215/70 R16 great for off-road and there are plenty AT tires for that size, it will also add clearence. While the stock 215/60 R17 is bigger in diameter than stock R16 215/65, but it’s a bit smaller than 215/70R16. If you can get AT tires for 215/60 R17 get them! but it’s harder to find and still, there are plenty of good suv all season tires for that size and I got Toyo’s open country myself.
I have 215/65 R17 for winter and 215/70 R16 for summer (A/T tires). No problems at all.
(Standard springs and shock absorbers)
Very Good car honest and steong
My Hyundai Santa Fe couldnt do that I had it for 13 years
Is it raised?
Hey, what Model for 4x4 eperience would you prefere? Petrol o diesel ?
There are not many differences between petrol and diesel . The diesel has extra torque but it’s not that big. Nevertheless I will go with the diesel if I want to buy a duster again 😁
@@DusterCoolTravels ok thxs for the answer, just thinking about the diesel Situation im austria... how this will Chance in the near future. Merry christmas to everyone :)
6:38 Salut! Esti multumit de Kormoran? Cum se comporta iarna pe namol vs zapada vs asfalt?
Foarte mulțumit. Dupa ce se rod astea, tot ceva de genul o sa îmi cumpăr. La noroi nu sunt cine știe ce, pe zăpada se comporta foarte bine, la asflat la fel, nu sunt zgomotoase și aderenta e f buna. Un raport calitate preț foarte Ok, din punctul meu de vedere.
@@DusterCoolTravels Multumesc pentru raspuns!
Diesel?
Yes .
nu bate, nu troncane. la anu o pui pe olx!
