    Time to move on

    Fellow Navaraites....it is with some sadness that I must advise it is time for us to move on....our D40 is gone to someone else. We owned our Navara for about seven years, it was a repossession and had done just 11'000 km, by the time we traded it we had travelled just under 100'000 km, we have...

    Reversing camera

    I brought a GPS with a reversing camera on ebay too....it is of course 'fully imported' from China :D. Works well, it is a boon when hooking up the caravan. Initially I had a wireless camera and while that was a breeze to install communications would drop out too often, I replaced it with a...

    Towing mirrors...again

    Thanks all but I was hoping someone has found one of the type you clamp to your existing mirrors that can actually clamp properly....I had a Rodeo some time ago and had great success with the type I had on there...the Navara mirror shape is quite different.

    Towing mirrors...again

    Fellow drongos...its been sometime since this subject was raised....I need a new set of towing mirrors....my old Repco things, the type that clip on the door with a tension strap to the door bottom, have outlived their useful life and scratched the s*it out of the glass anyway...I once had a set...

    D40 OBD MIL Code 1143 - Steering angle sensor.

    Fellows....I finally got around to getting this issue looked at....as mentioned the US Nissan Service bulletin relating to the likely (but not always) need to have the Steering Angle Sensor reset following front end work, including wheel alignment applies to Australian Nissan as well....I was...

    D40 OBD MIL Code 1143 - Steering angle sensor.

    I have found Nissan North America Service Bulletin (NPSB -16-602) and it states that any Nissan fitted with VDC must have the Steering Sensor reset after any front end work including a wheel alignment... have contacted Nissan Australia and they confirm this applies to Australian Nissan's...

    D40 OBD MIL Code 1143 - Steering angle sensor.

    Yep....I agree Tony...problem is that Nissan claim the reset can only be done using their proprietary tools...i.e Nissan Consult 11 diagnostic equipment....my OBD scanner doesn't even throw up the MIL.....and I guess I should have followed it up sooner...the wheel alignment was done before our...

    D40 OBD MIL Code 1143 - Steering angle sensor.

    Thanks Tony. And for anyone following this post, I may have found the solution...this from Nissan USA..I see no reason why it would not apply here too. It is the position of Nissan North America that, any time an alignment is done on a vehicle equipped with Vehicle Dynamic Control, a reset of...

    D40 OBD MIL Code 1143 - Steering angle sensor.

    Recently I had new tyres fitted and a wheel alignment on my 2012 D40 RX. My Vehicle Stability Control MIL illuminated on the dash, at first it flashed on and off but then stayed on permanently. See attached image. I took the truck back to the tyre fitters, they claim they did nothing to cause...

    OBD data info wanted known

    Ok thanks fella's...as mentioned I have found the Car Scanner app good as you have great control over the dashboard gauges appearance..you can really make them stand out for visibility.....and I have since found OBD Fusion....the Pro version ($4.99 I think) has amazing display options with...

    Fuel light how many kms to empty

    Folks....I once filled up just when my low fuel light come on yet I could only get 65 litres into the tank so still 15 L remaining, I would suspect each vehicle might be different. As for running too low and 'sucking up stuff'....I could never understand why that would be....the intake pipe...
