Hi, I had a 2004 pathfinder vge3.3 petrol. It would run until it warmed up and then would cut out. There is an ignition box in the distributor, under the base plate that would short out through a crack once it heated up. Changed the distributer and good after that. Took us weeks to find it.

Hi Andrew, I had similar issues, random loss of power, generally on open road and after trying to accelerate. I took it to a diesel upgrade shop and they identified the exhaust O2 sensor and the turbo controller. I changed both and all issues resolved, its an easy job to change both, buy the...

Hi, I also have a 2012 V6. I was getting 12.5 l/100 around the city and 10.5 on open road. I have a larger tyres. I was not happy with this or the severe turbo lag, so did the following mods: I installed a 3” exhaust, from turbo and plasma hard piping from turbo to manifold. I also installed a...

The only time I have the transmission slow to engage is on first starting the engine. It takes a few seconds to engage. After that its fine.

Hi, I had one fitted last week, it's been mounted at the front left behind the headlight see the photo in my garage.

I have had the 3 inch exhaust and retune, made a huge difference. Last week I installed a catch can and a new intercooler. Didn't see too much difference, but suspect I will see a lot more low rpm torque when towing. ECWest did the tune.

I had one fitted to my 550 last week. The mechanic said it was a big job. I also had a new intercooler fitted.

4.5T boat plus 1t trailer. Pulled it out with no problems.

I had a 3inch exhaust fitted and a dyno remap. The turbo lag is gone and the power increase is significant. Fuel economy has improved by 2l/100kms Its a great result.
