T31 Management

Our latest acquisition, a T31 2.0dci, is the pinnacle of luxury after three T30s. On the other hand, I'd say the handling isn't as solid or sure, especially in wet or slippery situations; what do you think?

Personally, I have never had an issue with mine; it is rock solid. I would inspect the tires and maybe the tracking system.

Mine has been completely trouble-free for me; it is sturdy. Tires and perhaps the tracking system would be my first points of inspection.

The novelty will wear off quickly, I'm sure. For whatever reason, "new" automobiles always have an odd sensation. My T31 has been a wonderful companion for the past seven years. Among the many cars I've owned over the years, this is up there with the greatest of them. I use mine to pull a caravan and it's so light that I hardly notice it's there. They're also excellent tow cars. Even when towing a caravan, it remains completely stable on highways. Long trips in one of these sturdy cars will be a pleasure.

My previous T30 dci was a poor driver compared to mine.Maybe there's a little more even distribution of weight on the car, which makes it handle better? Lovely to collaborate on.In any case, I've dealt with all of the issues that have arisen on the T31.Crank and alternator pulleys, a radiator support, bushes on the front and back subframes, and the overall structure of the vehicle.Perhaps its good handling is due to the fact that I have serviced every component, including the brakes, front wheel bearings, slider pins, front arms, and drop links.

In my opinion, you should verify the age and kind of tires that were installed. They will be extremely pliable if they are low-quality, unbranded Chinese trash with the weaker wall grade. They might be interested in getting a new one if they're rather elderly and have had theirs for a long time.
My go-to tires are high-quality Michelin, Goodyear, or Continental XLs with thicker sidewalls. Because of this, my T31 is incredibly stable in the rain and has great handling overall.

In comparison to the T31, the wheel base is somewhat longer, and the overall length is around +25 cm.
It feels different since it is little softer. Old, damaged front wishbone rear bushes are another potential source of poor handling. I had a bush that came away from its metal ring on one side of mine.
