Mine is a 13 VSK with 270k on the clock and knock on wood still runs like a champ. In the back of my mind whenever I hear a noise it has me wondering. I should probably just quit this forum! Like google, everyone only goes on to talk about when something went bad, not when it's working fine.

These threads make me think that getting a Hilux for a couple more grand might've been a better idea

Injectors? I'm confused. How would the injectors cause complete engine failure? (genuinely asking)

I'll edit this post and add a pic during the day, although I'm on the other side and think it's the 120, as I've got the 4x2 ST not the 4x4 STX. I'm now shopping for a clock-spring and seems to be about 200 to choose from depending what day of the week the car was made on.

knock on wood, I'm about 15k from where you are now. Like all cars, they like regular servicing it seems! - oil + Filter every 10k - Fuel filter every 20k - Air filter every 20k - Trans fluid + Filter every 60k I've followed this with all my cars, diesel or petrol. (yes I know it can be...

I still can't figure mine out, I have a 2013 VSK ST - is it the 140kw or 120kw? either way it feels like it's 80hp at best.

G Great job mate, But.. exactly what I was saying, I had no red wires anywhere in my D40 :) Purple, Blue, Green, and I think Yellow. It's like Nissan just picked whatever they had lying around

Just crimp on some female spade connectors to the factory wiring or solder the wires directly. The only hard thing about it is finding the + and - for the speakers. No matter where I looked, no online forum or any schematics matched my wiring colours. I kept on playing with the wiring till...

did mine literally a week ago. 6x9's will slot in perfectly with no mods. The rears are different, they are 6.5 but come in there own housing. I replaced mine and just made new screw holes to hold them into the door. When you open the back doors, you'll know what I mean. Worthwhile upgrade as...

if it's at the front, it could be from the timing cover where one of the seals have let go? Also, it's Rocker cover :)

I would have checked the Alternator / Battery volts and the earthing as well. That many codes and a flickering light, Electrical basics would have been my first stop..

Is the YD25 a generally 'Noisy' diesel? Mine sounds like an old Hino truck. Runs fine, Idles fine, doesn't blow smoke, fuel economy isn't great but the YD25 is not known for sipping diesel. I pull up next to other diesels and they're generally somewhat quieter, Is it my one that has a lazy...

Personal opinion - for 9k definitely not worth it. If you can do it yourself for half the price? yep worth it.

To a certain degree yes, don't skimp, get something decent. Normally I wait for Supercheap / Autobarn to have their 50% off sales and stock up. Get a good oil that's synthetic, 5w/30 and recommended for Diesels. I think with your 14, it should be the same as my 13 and not have a DPF which...

Can't be a Navara... the timing chain should have let go :P
