I got a set of 265/75/16 a couple of months ago and replaced a set of Cooper AT3's (75,000km worth). I have done about 3000km on them. First impression is that they are way more comfortable and quieter than the Coopers, the Coopers were a little harsh but these feel more like a road tyre...

I was talking to a guy the other day who said Nissan can do an "Injector Timing Reset" or calibration using their software. Does anyone know anything about this? I was thinking of maybe pursing that avenue if after the Moly Purge the rattle is still so pronounced. They will probably charge my...

Thanks, the air box is good but I will have a look around the exhaust, turbo and EGR return - but I am 99% sure it is the injectors. I have also done an ECU reset, and put it back into learn mode and done the 20min drive, but may try that again anyway. I agree with the fuel quality - I had a...

Can someone explain to me - in fairly simple terms - what injector rattle is, what causes it, and what happens if it is not remedied. I have the rattle, worst when the ute is cold then tends to quieten down when it warms up, altho I can still hear it quietly under partial load. I am gonna try...

I extended mine but got sick of paying the ridiculous prices for the Nissan services - so I just wrote it off and went somewhere else. I get a better deal from the local 4x4 specialists, they appear more more thorough as they are all 4x4 nuts and have a decent workshop - and they are about half...

It puts the engine back into a learning mode. Follow this http://www.blue-print.com/techtip/navara/ and go for a 20min drive.

Do an ECU reset, that should sort out a bit of the issue.

I have 265/75/16's and it drives better, and the speedo is closer to correct. very slight increase in fuel, but I drive it fairly fast everywhere so that is probably just me.

alas, I have always seen people quoting the 10's and below and have wondered if it was my driving style or my vehicle.... it is probably my driving.

I have just put on a 180w (18x10w Cree LED) Drivetech 4x4 lightbar on the front of my ute and holy moly it is bright! It gets pretty good distance too.

Old Tony, what is this software update for the King Cabs you speak of? I have one, and it doesnt had bad fuel economy (I think mid 11's generally) and I drive it medium to hard. But any gains are great - plus it may address the 4Lo surge in 4th gear that the KC have.... please give me more...

Just clocked over 100,000....

Mine was done by Ultimate 4x4 in Perth, but try to get one that is flush with the Chasis if possible.... just for piece of mind

I have a whole new 140l tank, which was in the wagon when I bought it and is awesome and gives me rediculous range (way over 1200km - I have never actually found out how far I can actually go but get >200km once the light comes on). The problem I have with it is that it hangs about 3/4 of an...

I get injector rattle on a cold start up which lasts untill the engine is up to operation temp. You can still slightly hear it when the engine is warm, but only if you listen for it. Under low throttle it is worst, but under heavy throttle it goes away. Is that normal, or a symptom of...

It is an interesnting thought about the extra load/power at high revs. I would have thought that it would also work the other way as well: lots of throttle at low revs with no boost would (over)load the chain. For me there is a sweet spot between 2-3000rpm when it is effortless for the...

As long as you sort the clearance out, I would say D40's are excellent. If you are towing alot, get an auto...

90k service last week. The only thing I dont like is the injector tap which lasts untill it is up to normal operating temp.

Wouldnt have the foggiest, and I am away at work so cant even look.

I get what sounds like an injector tapping noise on a cold start up, and have always had it as long as I have had the ute. I was wondering if replacing the SCV would address it. and if a higher spec one would improve performance?
