G'day What NEW Vehicle currently on the market would you consider to be similar/equal to the ST-X 550? Due to a series of events, I am now in need of a replacement Vehicle.

G'day I had to drive between Tenant Creek and Alice Springs this week. Some sections of the road have no posted speed limit. This gave me the opportunity to see what the truck had. The cruise control will go to 180Kph (GPS at 179). The engine sits on 3000RPM at that speed with engine temp 10...

G'day I've just had my STX550 converted to LPG. Not the cheapest power upgrade on the market, especially if you add the cost of traveling 2800km one way, meals and accommodation for 10 days. The conversion cost around 4.3k with long range LPG tank. The distributor is based in Adelaide, they...

G'day I have just done an Approximately 1730 km trip and the odometer says I have only done 1650 km. This will work in my favour long term for resale value by showing less km. Some of the problems are fuel usage/distance to empty etc. It also impacts on the auto transmission especially as I was...

G'day About 2 weeks ago the engine light came on, after 2-3 days I was able to clear the fault code. Today the light came on again and it is the same code. On both occasions the cruise control only worked intermittently. I think the OBD P2457 fault code is "Exhaust Gas Reticulation"

G'day Yesterday I was driving on a gravel road and a stone was flicked up onto the oil cooler (V9X). It now has a small dent about 30mm long and Oil is dripping from a seam. Do I have a valid warranty claim for this repair.

G'day Who has had a Dyno test on their Navara? What were the results? What "performance" mods have been done to get that result?

G'day. I'm looking for somebody with a STX V6 that could go to Opposite Lock (Thomas Mitchell Drive - Wodonga - Victoria) so they can measure it up for a LPG tank. I'm trying to get a quote for my Spanish built STX 550 (12-2013). Problem is I can't drop in myself as its' a 2400km one way trip. I...

G'day Front, Rear, both or none. Why/Why not? Why get them, I have "Traction Control"? Air, Electric, CIG. What type and why/why not? Who has them? Who thinks they are a waste of money? (I probably know the answers to the first 2 questions, just want to get it all out in the open.)

G'day Am I the only person who keeps a Vehicle Diary. I have recorded all vehicle expenses since the purchase mid last year. One reason was to see the true cost of the truck. Another was to track fuel usage. Date, Litres, Cost, $/Litre Now I have detailed records of fuel usage...

G'day Does anybody run their Diesel vehicle on anything other than just Diesel? what do you use? What are the benefits you get?

G'day I'm looking for information about the benefits and or shortcomings of a Diesel/Gas system. e.g. Increased range due to additional fuel capacity. Gas Tank taking up space. Limited under-tray Gas Tank capacity.

G'day I am looking for somebody that has an LPG tank fitted to their Navara. I am looking into a Diesel/Gas conversion and am interested in where they are mounted and how big the cylinders are.

G'day. Who uses a "Tyre Pressure Monitoring System"? Any recommendations? What do I need to keep away from? I have started to research these and would like some feedback from people that have them.

G'day. One of the work utes just had a service. I saw a sample of the engine oil that was changed and it was like thick custard. It has done 20,000 km since previous service. I'll try and get more details.

G'day. My Son and I Just did a quick trip south. Left after work on Tuesday (1-4-14)and arrived in Victoria the following evening. The trip computer was reset upon departure and was about to tick over 25 hours running time on arrival. We were on the road for 26 hours, just stopping to fuel up...

I have discovered a problem caused by my Great White L.E.D. Light Bar. The lights create interference with the FM Radio. I was out of town in a marginal FM reception area. The reception was fine until I turned the headlights on to High. I was showing a friend what the light bars could light up...

G'day. Picked up my first new car mid year (ST-X 550). Took it on a 5 1/2 week road trip (October & November). Got as far south as Melbourne (10,200km. 9.9L/100). Had an encounter with a HiLux in a Brisbane car park (Nissan 1, Toyota 0). Still to test it out as a 4X4.
