Re EGR - the diesel people I've spoken to have not been against it. I did not do the butterfly mod however. The EGR is there to lower the emissions - the cost of that means that the oil dirties a lot quicker and there is more carbon build up in the motor.

We purchased the Nav in 2003 2nd hand with only 2k on the speedo. But apparently the motor was crook then? (using 1 litre of oil per 1,000km!). Under warranty Nissan replaced the motor and turbo at 10k. Yes, I always drove calmly and let it idle before switch off. No I didn't have an oil...

Injectors are non-serviceable items. Replace only. @ $250 each. Diesel mechanic told me they often run to 160k before replacement. HTH

Well it happened coming home from work during the week. Took off in traffic, a loud pop and black smoke. I put the clutch in and the motor was revving hard. I switched it off quickly and rang NRMA. They towed us to my local diesel mechanic. Inspection revealed that the turbine wheel broke...

Hi all just a quick intro. We have a 2002 d22 which we've owned for last 5 years. Bought it 2nd hand in 2003 with only 2,000kms on the clock, however we soon realised it was using oil..... 1 litre per 1,000kms!!!!!! After contacting Nissan and doing a few oil consumption tests, they agreed to...

rear speakers Hi all I've fitted 4" rear speakers in the rear doors. Spent the money and bought the adaptor plates from Nissan @ $30, not cheap but after seeing them should have just cut up some tin plate! The 4" speakers fit and don't foul the window winders, however they face directly on...
