    Engine oil change?

    Jonney it's not really about she'll be right it's more about the fact that oil after 1400 ks is basically new. It will turn black quickly after a change due to remnants of oil left in the oil galleries through the block. Black oil for diesel is normal due to diesel being a high carbon emitting...

    D22 filters

    Hey kids, I work for a certain diesel machinery company and can get Donaldson filters for a good price. Roughly $12 for oil, 25 for air and 45 for oil, air and fuel kit. Have to confirm prices when ordering. I'm considering doing a bulk buy but need some numbers before I ask the boss wether...

    Caravan towing

    Totally agreed. My most hated and nerve racking thing to do in the nav is towing our boat down hill. Had a mate tow my boat back home one day. We were going to drive back with our respective partners but ended up leaving the girls in my car and we took his. Down hill doing 80 and got a huge sway...

    Shell serving Bio Diesel this week - Perth

    Hey guys, My D22 06 (3.0 TD Di) has started smoking a bit when I put the foot down so I decided to start using an additive and also find a servo who sells good diesel. The high turn over Shell (supplies trucks etc) down the road from me seemed like a good option as I usually use Caltex premium...

    Navara Turbo issues.

    I wouldn't stress too much Uniden. There are a lot of horror stories but also so many stories of guys with no problems and great cars, its just blokes generally don't come on forums to confess their love of their vehicle! I think the general consensus is a T Timer is a good idea. Or just idle...

    Navara Turbo issues.

    So the car is now finally fixed. Ended up having to get it fixed myself as the warranty guys kept screwing me around constantly. I kept taking time off work to get the car to them after being told they had a hire car for me which they never had. Lost more $$ in time off work than it would have...

    Navara Turbo issues.

    Well the oil analysis came back perfect. No wear metals etc and no fuel dilution. Trusted mechanic thinks its a boost leak but does not want to touch it in case it voids warranty. Will be taking it to idiot mechanic that the dealer uses tomorrow and hopefully the saga will end shortly...

    Navara Turbo issues.

    It is so hard to explain the noise as we all have a different take on what a noise sounds like. No intercooler. The hoses and clamps are bog standard from the day of manufacture I believe. Going to go over it all tonight. The joys of car ownership. Cheers for your interest tony :)

    Navara Turbo issues.

    Well I picked the Navara up last Wednesday and the noise was gone. Did about 400 country ks over the weekend and the noise came back on the way back into town. Trusted mechanic is looking at it tonight to see if he can figure out wtf is going on. Also sampled the oil for an analysis to check...

    Navara Turbo issues.

    Haha yeah I gathered that. I have the gaskets coming too. Was just curious if you had to line the holes up but from some research you obviously don't. Here is a shot of the current feed. Note the shiny purpley blue.

    Navara Turbo issues.
