I will have another look at the notes I have written regarding the shut off system for these motors but I seem to remember there is a solenoid that opens when you turn the key off which drops the injector fuel pressure supply. Perhaps there is air leaking back through the lines and enter that...

Just a quick question here are we talking about the v9x motor If that is the motor then a different attack on the primer bulb will be needed because under this system they suck the fuel right through they do not pressurise the system

Definitely very easy to replace. 2 minutes to change or test. I have attached a photo for reference. To test disconnect the 2 hoses at the bottom and touch join them

Hi fivefivezero. I had a similar fault with mine recently exactly the same symptoms and it turned out to be the boost control valve. A simple way of checking is to take both vacuum hoses from the bottom of the boost control valve while it is idling and touch join them together and see if you...

It went a bit like that but you need to add on the end that if you fart in the cab everything might change:LOL: They really can be difficult. The bit about genuine Nissan coolant I am not really convinced but that is what went into mine anyway and I have not had any problems in 40k.

Hi everyone just like to note for you that there is a problem with bleeding the air out of the cooling system on a v9x I had a hell of a lot of problems with mine when I had to take the motor out and I found in the end that Nissan had a very particular sequence of doing it. In the meantime it...

Haha sorry BarneyB I forgot to put in that it was the BCS that was the identified fault I bet that gave everyone a bit of a surprise when I said it that way. Hi Old Tony when you explain that way I'm not surprised with the outcome. I did think it was a little bit strange that the workshop...

I have just had some issues of a similar nature with not pulling at low revs and then coming on stronger above 2500 rpm and going really well at 3000 rpm. The next thing that showed up was a deep resonating through the exhaust at even travel at lower revs. Then started hearing "hunting" at idle...

Hi Shane, I had a problem with a 2003 Patrol that developed this problem for while. In short it was the filter primer. Cost me a bucketload because it did it in Kununurra after being on the Gibb River road. The morning after being on the rough road it would not start. I had a primer bulb and...

Hi Shane, Just to confirm. This is the Common Rail injection motor?

BarneyB, I was wondering if you could clarify where exactly the oil appears to be coming from. Thinking back to the make up of the rear of these motors, it would be unlikely for oil to be right around the bellhousing if it was leaking from the rear main. I would only expect to see it coming from...

Hi Old.Tony, It started giving an EGR limp mode which I had already guessed as being the solenoid valve blocking open. To be sure, I took it to someone recommended to me. After 10 days in his shop he sent me a video of it spewing vapour and oil out of the filler cap! Naturally I was a trifle...

Hi Cannonboy Going back a few years I had trouble of similar nature with both a Nissan Terrano and Toyota HJ61. One thing found on both was that the condition of the engine oil was critical to the cooling ability. I was advised to give the Terrano a really good oil flusher. The amount of junk...

I know this might sound a bit silly but.... the bloody things get lazy After a while of driving gently around the burbs mine is very similar. Yet if I have been towing heavy trailers, it responds very smartly for a good few days. All my mates are noticing similar things. One of those dubious...

Hi all, Yep, I have one of these dream (sometimes nightmare) machines. By virtue of having been conned by a supposed expert that I had a blown motor (long story) I removed and fully stripped the V9X and learnt that the problem was not major at all. In doing this I discovered some very...
