Hi all, Went to start the Nav this morning when real cold. Engine is V9X diesel. Failed to start on the first couple of attempts. Bit surprised at that. When it did fire up there was 4 "moving" small light bars flashing left to right in the bottom of the odometer instrument. Haven't seen them...

G'day alfric, I can understand your concerns with the figures of 386000k's on a ZD30. I agree with Horatius, in general "if it aint broke, don't fix it". Mine has done 492xxxk's. It's still very strong. Even though its been "put to work" at times, its been operated at all times inside its...

Hi All, my d22 just hit 478K klms in Sept. Last days of the month engine wouldn't start. Had me tossed. Found code to indicate pump electronics had failed. New Inj Pump, had the same pump rebuilt. New set of Inj's and away we go again. First time it has ever let me down in 17yrs (?) Still with...

Just had the Nav looked at. Error codes came up for fuel pump Comms, ie Code 73. Not at all surprised. Looks like a new pump. After 478K klms I'm not disappointed. Who said these pumps are no good? This is the first significant repair to this engine. The rest of the engine is untouched from...

Hi all, D22 with ZD30. Took daughter out for driving lesson. Stalled at an intersection. Country road situation. No engine problems of any type in the long past. Went to re-start. Engine would not start. Tried to fire but wouldn't catch and run. Towed home. Checked fuel filter, air filter...

I'm another happy driver of the St-X with a V9X. I haven't heard about the Patch Cable you guys are talking about. What actually is done by installing this cable. Is the EGR valve bypassed to trick the ECU that even if the EGR fails the ECU doesn't know about it? Or is it something else. Philip.

Thats a nice pair of lines on the print out Bazt. Anyone would want that power delivery for a tow unit. I'm impressed. somethjing i would like to end up with to pull the float.

I made the same assumption.It's about the only place to mount a can with the engine installation the way it is. That's where I've put mine too. It looks to me that the PCV outlet points down, say 6 o'clock. Can it be rotated to say 9 o'clock, pointing out to the passenger side of the engine bay...

Many thanks Old Tony. Once again a concise post. Although I had the plumbing arranged as your diagram sets out, there is some comfort in a confirmation. Thanks to you too Bazt. Your post gives clarity to the procedure to be followed.I notice you have an RD Technics tune done to your Nav also...

Hi All, Ive done all the install for the mounting of a catch can to my Nav. (D40 ST-X V9X). I can't finish attaching the hoses due to injuries at the moment. Getting a mate to do that for me i hope. Could someone tell me where the outlet pipe from the can attaches to the inlet system so I can...

Thanks Old Tony. Thats a good idea to drain to the sump, but relying on a solenoid for the operation goes a bit to far for my cofidence with electrics. Rather manually drain the CC and then empty to the oil filler. Apart from the PCV valve is there another vent point on the engine to take off...

Hi all, does it matter if the height of the catch can inlet from PCV valve is higher than the PCV valve at the engine? If oil reidue in the pipe from the PCV valve can drain back to the PCV valve when engine not running does this raise a risk of blocking the PCV valve, resulting in pressured...

Look at the engine specs at the bootom of the page. ZD 30 103 KW @ no RPM. Now that answers all my questions. If a deal looks to be good to be true........

Hi All, i'm installing a catch can this weekend to my ST-X V6. It is a Flash Lube type. (Pro Vent / Mann Hummel knock off). I'm just think ing about the position of the can. I intend to locate it at the front of the engine bay, off the radiator support. The top of the can will be about level...

As of today, 2003 D22 ST-R, 446,856Klm. Serviced every 10k KLM without fail from new. Butterfly mod done, Catch can too. It's done it all. City, 4x4 mountain stuff, heavy 3T towing, long distance touring, B&S balls. Still returns high 9's / L fuel ecomnomy on long distance trips @ 100km/hr...

G'day Horatius, We had the same outcome as you after changing the CB at 380,000Klm. We went through the same elimination process after checking all that we did when doing the CB replacement. All was good. We replaced every part and balanced everything that rotated along the driveline including...

ST-X 550 speedo error Yep, mine too. As far as I know the vehicles speed is taken from an ABS sensor at the right front wheel. (Someone else may be able to correct me on that). As far as I know there is no way of adjusting the ABS signal to the speedo to correct for the speed shown. (I can be...

Hi djverral, I'm interested in your work on this. I'm no electronics person so forgive me if I've got your post all wrong but are you trying to get control of the trans ecu to hold gears in 4Lo through the factory 4WD switch along with a switch to isolate the factory 4WD Lo congtrol logic as...

Hi All, Thought I might post this up as a testament to the longevity of the Navara driveline. I had to replaced the the centre bearing in our D22 at 381000Klms and 13yo. Not a bad result I would have thought. However, immediately after found that there was a vibration in the driveline which...

G'day Mike 1303, think I'm going to sit on this for a while yet and churn it through some more. If had an application which required "the real deal" solution for a complete rear end rebuild with the right AM gear I wouldn't hesitate. The thing is this ute just rolls around as an empty ute with...
