That'd be right. Do the EGR mod and fit a catch can (lot's of threads about what's best and how to do it) and your problems will go away, providing there is no actual defect with the turbo's internals that is. I tow boats and caravans, had a lot of problems same as yours, did the mods, problem...

Hey Andrew D In order to do a "strip down" inspection the turbo needs to be completely removed, without complete removal there is nothing that you can do. Once you have completely removed the turbo, the compressor housing (that's the silver coloured cover) can be unbolted (6 x 10mm headed...

Just thought I'd post some feedback regarding the EGR and Catchcan mod's I did a few weeks ago. EGR: Litres Per 100 Km's - NO change, still using 9.75 Ltr/100 which is what I got before the mod. Engine is a lot smoother and has a little bit more low end grunt, certainly seems to have got rid...

Hey Jon Thanks for the encouragement, I really enjoyed doing the job and am pleased with the end result. I'll give it a few weeks as I've got some big "K's" coming up, and will report back on what's in the tub. I'm sure that other forum users will want to know about the success / failure of...

Hey Super Tourer There have been lot's of write up's and posting regarding the installation of catch can's and what type to fit. From what I have read there are quite a few variants available from the "motorist stores" who charge like a wounded bull for a flashy coloured can but doesn't...

Hey DVR, It's not noobiness mate, as the saying goes, "A man who asks no questions is a fool for life" enough philososphy for now!! What it does is filter out the oil vapour and crap that comes out of the top of the engine (the hose at the rear of the R/cover) which is then put back in through...

:big_smile:I said in a previous posting that I would put up some words and pictures relating to the installation of a Provent 200 Catch Can. The unit was purchased from Western Filters, Pt No 3931070550 $161.00 & although the unit comes with a filter cartridge I bought a spare, Pt No 3931051950...

Hey Andrew D Thank you for posting your findings too, I was beginning to question my own eyes, I even had the wife out there double checking!! With regards to the oil vapour, I hope to have my Provent Catch Can install finalised tomorrow, it's quite a large piece of equipment and I wanted to...

Was Nissan dealer serviced until warranty expired and there has been nobody else touch the vehicle since then other than myself, very strange!!

2005 d22 zd30 66k Hi Everybody I just wanted to give some feedback, especially to Tweake as he offers a lot of advice and information to other forum members. Since owing my Navara from new I have read a great deal about the problems surrounding EGR etc. I service my own vehicle every 7,500...

Hi Jason Thanks for the compliment. Mechanic by trade although that was many years ago, but electrics.......NEVER my forte but I can following instructions. As you say, "can't beat DIY" especially after seeing the absolute "pig's ear" of a job the local Nissan dealer done on my spotties, bare...

Hey Wozenme Thanks for the additional information. Between the three of you, I've definately got it covered now. All is good and no more "lights left on" problems. Cheers MAP
