Iveco Daily engines

Does anyone on here have experience of BOTH the mechanically injected and the electronically injected (common rail) engines in 2000s Ivecos?

With Ford Transits for example, there's a massive difference. Mechanically injected ones broadly speaking work. But with common rail ones, all you ever hear about is smoke, warning lights and VERY expensive electronic injectors.

Is the difference with Iveco engines as stark? I'm looking at a 2008 common rail 2.3 but the common rail is putting me off.

Nothing to be scared of with common rail providing the person servicing it knows what he is doing. There are a lot of clueless fitters out there that when faced with a problem just keep changing expensive bits until it runs. Its important to find a mechanic that has the proper diagnostic kit and knows how to use it.

I will second that, we cleared a building out about 12 mth ago and in the building there was a Iveco pick up that had not run or moved for over a year put jump leads to it and it fired up almost instantly OK a lot of smoke but that was to be expected with it standing so long, over the 2 wk we was there we moved it several times and hardly any smoke after but the thing what amazed me was the mileage it had done 387k and it sounded as it it had done next to nothing, i would consider one with out a hesitation,,,
