📖Daihatsu Terios III (F800): modern seven-seat SUV utility

Daihatsu Terios III (F800) (2018-2023)

Unveiled in late 2017, the third-generation Terios F800 evolved into a longer, seven-seat family SUV with bold crossover styling and substantial ground clearance. Engineered for developing road infrastructures and heavy payloads, routine Daihatsu Terios maintenance guarantees that this rugged rear-wheel-drive platform remains trouble-free across high mileage and demanding commercial or domestic use.

Propulsion is entrusted to the modern 1.5-litre 2NR-VE Dual VVT-i petrol engine, featuring an all-aluminium head and block alongside an enduring timing chain. Paired with either a five-speed manual or a four-speed automatic gearbox, the powertrain is mechanically straightforward. However, family duty in warm climates can induce early coolant weeping from the water pump, requiring regular checks around the auxiliary drive belt and thermostat housing.

Owner notes

The reassuring points, known weak spots and deadlines you should not let slip.

Reassuring points

Reliability
  • Modern 7-seat SUV versatility built on a rugged rear-wheel-drive or 4WD chassis with high ground clearance.
  • Ultra-reliable 1.5-litre 2NR-VE Dual VVT-i petrol engine shared widely with contemporary Toyota platforms.
  • Maintenance-free timing chain and straightforward under-bonnet layout allowing easy maintenance access.
  • Robust suspension tailored to absorb punishing road surfaces and heavy family loads.

Chronic weak spots

Keep an eye on
  • Water pump weep on 2NR-VE: early signs of coolant leakage often emerge before 80,000 km; inspect pulley for pink deposits.
  • Automatic gearbox fluid servicing: neglected ATF causes delayed Reverse-to-Drive engagement and hesitant 2-3 shifts when cold.
  • Rear suspension sag on 7-seat models: frequent heavy loading leads to tired rear coil springs and inner tyre edge wear.
  • Radiator plastic end tanks: heat cycling can cause hairline cracks around the top hose neck; inspect coolant level regularly.
  • Front wheel bearings and suspension ball joints: heavy urban or unpaved use causes premature wear and rumbling noises.

Critical deadlines

Do not miss
  • Engine oil and filter renewal every 10,000 km or 12 months using 0W-20 or 5W-30 synthetic lubricant.
  • Automatic transmission fluid replacement every 40,000 km or 36 months to maintain smooth shift quality.
  • Engine coolant flush and renew every 60,000 km or 48 months to preserve aluminium radiator and heater core.
  • Rear differential oil drain and refill every 40,000 km on rear-wheel-drive and 4WD models.
