Hi tweak'e - Thanks for your input. It is interesting as that is not what the 3 mechanics I went to about this said. They all indicated that as part of an immobiliser there is a valve that lets fuel return to the tank to make starting more difficult. Interesting that opinions vary on what should...

Hi all Just thought I'd share something weird that I found out about my D40 (2013) - yeah I know...I'll keep it to 1 thing. I've been having an issue with the immobiliser or more accurately the ignition not recognising the key when I insert it, which leads to the immobiliser not being...

OK ... I think I fixed the issue. One morning the ute got to the corner and then just stopped dead. It was as if it had just been turned off. I figured battery...which was correct - the positive bushing wasn't touching the terminal well enough. So I went and purchased a new terminal and attached...

Just checking from the brains trust exactly what happens when the immobiliser is perhaps a little faulty. Every now and then (maybe once a day) I have to prime my diesel with the pump bulb under the fuel filter to get the ute to start. What I have noticed is that every time it is about to...

Yeah...maybe I'll repost in another section with that as the Lead question

Hi Old Tony No leak...first 5-7 pumps - the bulb is 'soft'. Then gets hard by 8. After that, each squeeze only depresses the bulb by about 1cm max...following you advice to do more than 20. Didn't fail at all yesterday. This morning went to get my morning 'V'. Parked. Didn't central lock the...

Hi Simon Thanks for your response. I've added an observation to the post thread, but you may be onto something. I've started noticing that each time it is about to not even crank over, the immobiliser light is on (car with key through it). Maybe the immobiliser does something to the fuel circuit...

Thanks Tony. I've been doing about 20 pumps and it works most of the time...if it doesn't then I have to get someone to be starting the ignition while I prime the fuel filter cannister...that has worked every time except 1 where an NRMA guy sprayed some stuff in the air intake and it started. He...

A couple of additional points regarding the problem...and it has gone to 3 mechanics in the last month and none of them can find a problem with the fuel line. It seems to be triggered more often by reversing before turning the engine off...but this may just be a coincidence When I go to...

Hi all I replaced diesel fuel filter on my 2012 D40 Spain built as fuel was draining back to the fuel tank and ute needed to be primed before it would start. Has not fixed the problem. It is an intermittent problem. Happens maybe once every few days - then twice in half an hour. Sometimes...

Hi all Shaby here. New tothe forum but not new to the navara world. Love my D40 2012 4 door ute...have a doozy of an issue though. Mechanic just shrugged his shoulders....
