Hi,new owner of D40

[Skourias]

Hi,I am new member here. Finally i bought a used D40 navara 4 door black colour. I always wanted this car specially D40,so finally I got it.
Its a 2010 model,first hand,Euro 4 with a low km engine. It had only 87000km and its in very good condition inside and outside.

Nice find, only 87,000km it's barely run in. Hope you have a pressure washer and an electric polisher though - the black cars need a lot more attention!

Thank you guys. You re right about black,becomes dirty quickly but with this colour car shows beautiful and angry at the same time.

First thing when I bought it was to change all fluids. I changed engine oil and oil filter,fuel filter,air filter,cabin filter,steering pump oil, rear diff oil,gearbox oil,transfer oil and the rear diff oil seal( there was a small leak,not something big). I was advised not to change front diff oil dut to rare usage of it. Engine oil replaced by 10w40 motul 4100 turbolight. My engineer told me to replace oil every 5000km but seems to be too fast. What do you thing about that?
Regards.

Changing every 5,000km isn't a bad thing if you can afford it.

The D40 doesn't have locking hubs, the front axle turns over all the time - it's just not connected in the transfer case until you select 4HI/4LO. If you're on a bender to change the fluids, I'd do that diff as well.

And although there's probably no need to change it, I should point out that the absolute most important and vital fluid in the car is the brake fluid - especially when you need to stop in a hurry!
