FYI, just needed a new cam sensor. All good now, cheers. Was just not feeling happy after having dropped several thousand on the timing chain upgrade to get the same symptoms a few weeks later! What a relief.....

Thanks mate, yeah I wouldn't expect that either...but it has 100% gone out on me twice and showing similar symptoms. Negative terminal is good, and sensor's wiring *looks* okay. Just dropped it off at the place that just recently upgraded the timing kit to double row. Here's hoping that it is...

Howdy all, I've had my 2013 D22 go through a timing chain change in 2021....then just last month had the issue again, so went for the upgrade to double row kit. Then was just driving on highway yesterday and fully lost power at 100km/h. Pulled over to road and started it back up and was in...

Thanks Tony, I don't hear any timing chain noise (was very loud and obvious last time, but didn't have the stalling issue then). However, I haven't put a stethoscope on it or anything. This post is the one that primarily points me to a strong suspicion of timing chain....as this is exactly what...

Immensely frustrated right now. I had problems 2 years ago with the notorious timing chain (could even hear it slapping/rattling behind cover) and got it replaced with the double row chain kit. Costed me $2,700 Fast forward to this month and the ute started stalling when cold, but not when...

Thanks, but I've gone over all of the heat shields pretty thoroughly and can't find anything loose. I've even put some clamps on some regardless just for good measure.

Thanks mate, that is really helpful. Those sound like the exact symptoms that my ute is experiencing, so it is a promising lead. I will check it out this weekend. But to be clear: if the alt clutch is okay it will spin in one direction freely until it eventually stops spinning. If it is not...

Thanks, will have a look. But considering this only makes the noise after reaching certain RPMs and not when the engine is cold, I don't expect I'd hear it when turning by hand. Will look into it anyway. Cheers

Thanks for the reply, and yes it is the YD25, I'll edit that now. I don't think it is the alternator pulley, have just replaced belt for power steering and asked mechanic to check main belt too and he didn't mention any issues. When you say clutch, do you mean the damper springs have gone out...

Hi all, I've searched high and low for a solid answer to the infamous D22 engine rattle and have had no luck. I'm getting very very desperate and hope someone can help me out. 2013 Navara D22 (YD25). I can trigger the noise by doing the following (in any gear, but easiest in 3rd and 4th): Drive...
