I had a 2011 Highline that I did 400,000kms in and it was great, I have just picked up a 2016 with low Km's and it has some very strange issues. It is a 420HL 2WD again but this time it has the 8 speed auto.
When stopping at lights after 3 seconds the transmission makes a large jolt. The dealer said it is the fuel in the tank moving round but it is definitely not that and I proved it by pulling up to the lights in neutral and also with a low fuel tank.
The next issue is sometimes when leaving the lights, it will apply the brakes like the downhill assist almost throwing you through the window.
The last issue is the wipers on intermittent go at random times, really fast patches then not at all and then back to normal for a tiny bit and then full speed again.
I didn't have any issues with the last amarok except for belts and tyres. It's with the dealer now but just wondering if these are common issues and if the dealer will blow them off as normal.
