On a recent trip towing the caravan I suddenly lost drive power (like engine revving and not connected to the transmission) and the ATP & 4WD Mode Indicator lights began to flash. I pulled over and let everything cool down for about half an hour. Restarted ok, drove another hour into Longreach...

Can anyone recommend a reliable, competent and reasonable charging (not like a bull!) D40 mechanic/workshop on the southern Gold Coast. Am over being overcharged and under-serviced by dealer service department. Have had the vehicle since new (2010) and log book serviced by dealership. Many...

Going the Big Lap in my 2010 Spanish build D40 for 12 months leaving early May. Replacing OEM Goodyear Wranglers 255 x 65 x 17 with BFG A/T 265x 70 x 17. Suspension has been upgraded with 2in lift. Any known problems I should be aware of with using bigger tyre (dealer assures me the speedo...

My D40 (Spanish build 09/2010) is still under warranty until 24Mar2014. I have been having the dealer service the vehicle every six months or thereabouts and costs for these servicings have been tolerable. However for the last servicing I was told it was due for a 2 year/40000km major service...

Wow - as a newbie to looking for an extra wheel it's a jungle. Have a 2010 D40 Spanish build with original wheels running original (so far) 255/65/17 tyres. What size rim and offset should I be looking for? Just want it as a second spare to strap to the roof on trips. I presume I am better off...

My wife and I are planning to head off on the'big lap' around our big country next year. My 2010 Spanish build D40 dual cab auto has, at the moment, standard factory suspension and I would appreciate advice on suggested suspension etc. upgrade for such a trip. I plan to put on bash plates and...

Would like some advice on how good reverse parking sensors are on the ST-X. Am not so good at reverse parking! Have heard conflicting reports (as usual) on how effective they are. Prefer not to have to fit a reversing camera but maybe this is better than sensors (any thoughts on this?). Advice...

Am gradually upgrading my new ST-X. I have had a look at related messages on snorkels but found the range of views confusing. Airtec & Nissan dealer supplied seem to be preferred but I know there are many other brands also. I want one which has good durable plastic, fits well and effectively...

I put this originally in New Members Area but should have put it in this forum. Recently got my new D-40 ST-X - finally. I want to get a bullbar for it and am attracted to getting an ECB alloy bar. I don't want the extra weight and possibility of upgrading suspension with a heavy all-steel unit...

Recently got my new D-40 ST-X - finally. I want to get a bullbar for it and am attracted to getting an ECB alloy bar. I don't want the extra weight and possibility of upgrading suspension with a heavy all-steel unit. I do intend to do some trips outback and into some of our national parks but...

Once I get my new ST-X (order placed last Nov, factory delay until approx Mar !) I will be long-distance touring with a van as well as local driving. Never having had a diesel before I am curious to know what are the advantages a diesel has over the petrol engine as well as any disadvantages. I...

Hello fellow Navarites, what a great forum for those of us owning Navaras. Well I am about to buy my first Navara for long distance touring & towing a van (to get later!). I have ordered a dual cab white ST-X and am wondering if it is best to get a drop-in liner or a spray-on liner. Later I will...
