Hey Everyone, I have a 2009 D40 65000km Dual-cab and have recently found a strange knock or chatter in the engine when going uphill in 6th gear while underload.
Noise is periodic and coming up to end of warranty, so i am just wanting to know if anyone else has had this problem.
The local Nissan dealer can't fing anything wrong.
 
Hi Keller10,

I have a 2010 D40, had a similar noise to pinging under light load especially in high gears when towing. Turned out to be a clutch pipe vibration that was a known warranty fix, had this attended to and the noise has not returned. I think that there is a section that is really close to the engine and causes a rattle.

Ask Nissan about that...

Cheers, db.
 
What revs were you at? You may have been labouring the motor.

I might have been labouring the motor,Was with 2500 revs and with a slight incline in 6th gear, But when i go to nissan next will get the clutch pipes checked out.

Cheers for the help
