Nice pic and location.

One thing I gotta ask, is your D40 a diesel. If so get a snorkel, a petrol engine would like one to I imagine.

did you come to a complete stop and put it in neutral with foot on the clutch? or if auto just in neutral with the brake on. i thought i had a problem with it engaging until i read the little card they give you on how to operate the switch.

peter, with your clutch was it a feeling in the pedal ? i have an intermittent problem also. the clutch isnt slipping and the clutch pedal doesnt get stuck in, but it feels like it could. it only happens after a long trip or after half hour or so of low range. feels like a click/grind but gives a spring kind of sound. hard to explain.....

im getting a snorkel put on next thursday and they are looking at it then hope its an easy fix.

It wouldn't engage.... Now it is temperamental, so sometime it will engage and sometimes it wont... Nissan said it is a electrical fault is it is going in to get sorted on Monday 12th.. They could not fix it on the 24th Dec, as the Auto electrician was on holiday's.....

I have a few more items that need to be sorted now also...
The power steering is making a noise in the cabin when I turn the wheel, there is a rattle from the engine bay when I start the motor and I am going to see if Nissan will repair or replace the side step that was bent when I decented down a sand cliff slowly (2ft drop).

Dont like your chances.

I lost 2 caps off my rims and Nissan refused to pay for em. They fell off when I was offroad. So I bought 2 more ($120 each) and then thought twice and took them off.

Yeah, I think I'll have a better chance at winning the lotto then getting Nissan to repair my side step...

Mmmmm, Just read this post... Mine is a Auto, and I have read the manual ( a year ago).. RE: the foot on the brake has me thinking. I know the car has to be in Netural or Park for it to ingage, but I was not aware about having to press on the brake,, I'm going to give it a go now... I don't remember getting that yellow card either...
