Hi guys,
Im Simon and this is my first TD ever.
I used to drive a Honda Civic and so this ute is totally different and i have no idea what to do.
If you guys could answer afew questions or link me a thread, it would help me alot or even save my ute from driving it wrong
Please remember i used to drive a Civic so dnt go nuts when i ask how to drive a TD ute.
Its a Navara 2006, 3ltr TD Manuel, all stock parts, Nissan bullbar. ST-R model and all stock ( i think )
1. under normal conditions, when should i change gears? ( in a civic it was between 3000-4000 rpm )
2. whats its cruising speed? can i reach 120km on the high way?
3. When i turn right in 2nd gear, eg round about, i lose all power around 2.5k rpm, for a second and get heaps of smoke out the back, is that normal?
4. When i turn hard, eg up my drive way, i get a clanging/banging noise from the front end, wtf is that?
thanks all for now guys, iv only had it for 3 days so im still trying to learn it.
