Just an update on the turbos. The first turbo that was replaced probably did not need replacing. The local mechanic said the noise was the turbo but it would appear from having the same noise later on that the noise was just a leaky gasket post turbo. The turbo we first put in was a Billet...

Hope someone can help. I just had an exchange engine fitted to my D40 and now it runs fine for about 1 kilometre then there is a big puff of blue smoke and then the blue smoke continues. However if you stop and turn off the engine and restart it immediately, there is no smoke until it has...

Of course I can't test or read OBD2 or test pressures until I put another turbo in. Might be cheaper to buy shares in Garrett?

Thanks Old Tony. I should have had the vehicle towed to you or at least your mechanic, I am apparently not that far away. Just sent the last two turbochargers to Denco Diesel for a post-mortem. The last turbo (No. 4) had no impeller - they found it in the top of the catalytic converter. The...

Fuel leaking into oil may have been cause for previous failures but this is new engine, so unlikely. Has all new hoses and tubing. New exhaust manifold and new gasket kits on both exhaust and inlet manifolds. I don't know about the vac control unit but will ask. Intercooler was flushed and...

No chip fitted. When one of the turbos was replaced the mechanics there said I should have the boost checked and my mechanic said it was fine. But I am interested to know if this can be adjusted via the ECU and if so, how would you know. Would this be information that any mechanic could read...

I have posted previously about my turbo problems but now it has gone way past ridiculous. April last year I had a screeching noise which my mechanic said was a turbo. He put a new Billet turbo in and it lasted till early December when I replaced with another Billet turbo (under warranty). This...

Hi, My D40 engine blew and I have an exchange engine being fitted. Has anyone had this done and if so how long did it take and what was the labour cost?

Hi all, My 2008 Navarra has been going well for 8 months since I put a new SCV, new turbo and new radiator. Today it all changed. Heading up the big hill (Blue Mountains Lapstone) it had a sort of screaming/whirring noise and lost power (not limp mode) and I saw large clouds of black smoke...

Hi Old Tony, Mine is a Thai built King Cab and is auto and definitely has a DPF fitted. As I said Berrima put one on and it only got me half way home then the vehicle went into limp mode, which is a problem for cars and people I believe. The Navara has been to a few Nissan dealers and they...

Hi Bods, Before the DPF was replaced they said the boost was less than 3 (3 what I don't know) when it should have been 20. It went a lot better with the new DPF as you would expect and Berrima said the turbo was OK. They said the injectors were OK as well but I am not sure if you can tell...

Hi all, Having multiple problems with my 2008 D40 Navara auto. It has a lazy axle fitted as I cart a slide on camper around. Has Diesel Gas Australia system fitted and it has been renewed and tested. Has a new Taipan DPF fitted (as Berrima Diesel said they could not remove the DPF) which is a...
