Thanks pal.... 08 with 90,000 almost on the dot. I would expect it to last a lot longer than that.

Well I thought I would add to the list of people that need to replace the chain... Mine is with the mechanic as we speak - I am utterly disgusted at Nissan with putting such a shit piss weak chain in a ute with torque and power figures that the navaras can put out. My guides have dropped and...

Well it appears mine is playing up to.... I am in the process of selling my ute and it starts rattling... Anyone want a 08 STX TD Auto with Chip it, EGT, 90,000klms in pretty good nick and does get good klms on fuel - 650+ $25K

For those as I was that are sceptical - I wish I did it earlier.... Benefits fuel went from 575klm a tank to 650+ (got 680 last fill) Holds top gear when towing and general driving a heap better Power increase is noticeable and that isn't even dyno tuned to suit the car.... DPF isn't...

Cheers. I connected it and thus far.... Wow. Significant power increase. Real test will come this weekend towing the boat and all loaded up.

Help - trying to install my chip it and cant find where the map sensor plugs connect too. its a 08 D40 dual cab, spanish built if that helps. cheers

I heard you also need to reset the ECU when you replace the fuel filter?

Hi, does a 05/06 chip it, chip fit a 08? Love to hear from Robert...

No idea... Its ready available at MCAS and costs around $40

Well mine was peeling, and is now out of the warranty period... So I did this mod this arvo... Carbon fibre sticker... Looks heaps better.

Thought I would post up the exact klm after fueling up tonight. 68.7ltrs and 657klm. = 10.46 L/100km Now I remembered I filled with the vortex diesel and drove what some might call normal... IE not in a hurry to get up to speed, although keeping up with traffic. She is a stock standard 2008...

Finally done a tank without towing and pleased to say 640km on the trip meter and light still not on yet. I Expect maybe 5-10klm more till it does. What I have done is slightly change my driving style. I am not aggressive to get up to speed.

#1 - F250 extra cab or dual cab #2 - Hilux (again) #3 - New Ranger #4 - Triton #5 - BT-50

I must be a lucky one then... 08 dual cab auto I am getting 11.5-8ltr per 100km.... Get 580km for 67-8ltrs. Thats being a bit of a lead foot as well.. Still not impressed with those figures though! My previous 04 short wheeled base ford transit got 650km fully loaded (x plumber) towing a 1.5t...

Well still havent done a tank without towing as yet. Got 500ks from 67ltrs towing a fully fueled fibreglass boat, loaded ute with fishing gear and kids toys, clothes etc, 2 kids and wife... So 13.4ltrs per 100km. Wasnt really driving consertative either but wasnt aggresive either.
