SsangYong Rexton Y200 II / Y285 II (2006-2012) Questions & Answers

Hi. Appreciate your advice. My 2009 Rexton Diesel lacks fast excelleration power. It drives through the gears ok. Mechanic said that the DPF is blocked & a good run on the freeway for 39 min should fix the problem Well an hour later of freeway driving, the problem is still there. No too confident with my Mechanic as he lacks make/model experience. Your comments please. Regards Greg

In The last 5 years by SsangYong rexton has had it's fan belt either partially or fully wrapped up in the motor. last Friday week they just replaced my fan belt and also a couple of the small flywheels one was very flaky and the other was really rough on one edge I think they've replaced it with a smoother one. Is 1 meant to be really rough on the edge? And last Tuesday part of the fan belt was chewed up again. Do you have any solutions to this problem?thank you.

Hi Everyone, I have a 2006 Rexton XDI 270 Auto. Which does not have traction control but as soon as I’m off road and it detects any loss of traction it starts to pulse and makes it harder to go through soft sand, is it the ABS system and is there a way to Delete?
Thanks Stephen.

Hi David, three weeks ago in Jan 2022, I had top of range electric brake system installed in 2008 Rexton. (This car has been a nightmare btw). A few days after while towing the float, after aprox 100kms of no probs, the engine check light came on, she lost power and went into limp mode. Dangerous hwy at 3.30am, so I limped her 25ks to road house. After stopping there, topping up fuel, she started no probs and the engine check light was off. I took my time (slower) rest of journey. I drove her with float off when there (too see if related to new work) and she didn't seem to have any real kick back through boost? On the way home ECLight came on 4 times when under pressure up a hill & power loss again, so stop, it corrects, move on.
When looked at by electrics bloke it threw codes P1480 condenser fan & P0108 booster pressure sensor short. Advise if you have any please.
My lovely mechanic just retired, he at least had an idea on this vehicle and it's (issues).

I have just purchased a 2007 Rexton 2.7 manual. When driving it randomly beeps at me. The beeping is a slow high pitched beep that happens for about 5 to 10 seconds and then stops. It also does this in exactly the same manner when you first start the engine. There are no warning lights displaying and the way the car drives is completely unaffected. The car is obviously trying to tell me something but I have no idea what. Any ideas?
