So would there be any difference on doing this to a D40?

Just a quick up date, the mechanic reckoned he could get a mafs for 250, so as it hadnt turned up yet I took the car running the old mafs and whilst the car ran reasonable power wise the air noise of sucking and blowing left me scratching my head. Took it back this morning saying something isnt...

Yes Dave it is a real mystery, 2 months ago it head butted a dune on Stockton beach. Sheared the bottom radiator mounts off and turned the cooler fan into a tea saucer. Un be known to the driver at the time they didnt realise the coolant had escaped so drove on till the temp started to rise. It...

Thanks for your help Nathan, and all of you for your input and suggestions. It looks like the problem has been staring us in the face the hole time, The mechanic removed the MAFS cleaned it up and away it went. He recommends replacing it what do you reckon?

Tony Im in the Campbelltown district the local dealer reluctantly gave me a number that they send their vehicles to. My mechanic got a bloke in this arvo who has a more advanced computer system than his, did some scans and has taken the reults away......

The latest is replaced exhaust, put the car on the computer comes up NATS car wont start. disconnect battery pump brake reconnect battery car starts but is very slugish. Thats a full day 2 guys working on it plus 1 guy for 3 hours Saturday. Its looking like I am going to have to get it trailered...

Getting a little high tech for me but I believe the code coming up is MPA, manifold pressure. Put a camera thru cat and from top of exhaust and it showed up nothing. After he replaced intercooler he took it for a drive and still no power (probably limp mode still). He is out of answers local...

Yes Nathan and it ran fine stationary. didnt try and drive it

just gone 1 oclock, mechanic still cant find problem, hes found a fist full of what looks like insulation in the passenger side of intercooler removed and cleaned out intercooler. God only knows how it got there, hes reset the computer and now it is coming up manifold fault still no power. So...

I had a look at the car just now, unfortunately the air filter is in the right way. Mechanic wants to pull out the intercooler and make sure there is no blockages...said it wont cost me nothing so I suppose Ill let him do that. Havent checked the Maf forgot, duck back around there now. Started...

Thanks Nathan Ill go and spend some time with him in the morning. But yes Im not paying him to start pulling more things apart. Hope it will be 1 of the simple things that have been suggested. Will post results tomorrow.

Thanks fellas, IM not in the hunter region unfortunately, thanks anyway. I think the general consensis seems to be the air filter, will try that first in the morning (monday) and then try fuel filter ect. Agree I think the mechanic has done his dash with me anyways

No there is no engine check light on, the spanner comes up but I think that is just for service reminder? I have diconnected battery pushed brake on a few times and left for an hour, reconnected still the same problem. Havent tried touching pos an neg together yet. Car is still at mechanics and...

Thanks Dave appreciate the suggestions will let you know the results.

Hi Dave yes it was on the tar when I disconnected intake, sticks I have no idea as he hasnt owned the car long ( bought 2nd hand) sand would be from Stockton beach. The air filter thingmy jig ? I will have to check on that. I have had it limp mode before, and it behaves exactly like that again...

Hi guys, just hoping someone on here maybe able to help me with my sons Navar D40. Its a 07 deisel that I took to my local mechanic yesterday as I had a free voucher for an oil change. Trying to be helpful I borrowed my sons car and thought Ill use the voucher and get his car done. While there I...

Yeah I was just looking at the Bud's SAS. And am very keen. But 20 grand, could it really cost that much?

Can the front diff be replaced with something stronger?

Hey onlock, when you talk about spacers and things thats what I really am not sure about, I'll have to do some more reading. But the 2 inch is the easier way to go as I'm still an apprentice and all the costs of engineer certificates and so forth just completley out way what im capable of...

Yep fair enough, will sort that out first, Thanks for your help. Andrew.
