Are they worth it? Well, the initial improvement was noticeable, but not as much as the packet would have you believe. After I made up a new harness with decent size cable, the performance improved again. At a guess, the globes alone “improved” my night vision by 10%, the harness by the same...

Just got back from holidays yesterday, towing the caravan against that howling wind. My D40 is a Spanish built STX 2007 automatic (with DPF) so you might guess what's coming. I filled up at Lakes Entrance, drove 334km and it took 67 litres to fill up again. The 'van is a pop-top single axle with...

I got my letter Monday, rang up my local dealer today, can't get in until May 10th as they "only have limited time slots to book recalls in" Perhaps it's not as great a money spinner for them as some think?

My 2007 auto D40 with DPF had the same rough idle when cold since I bought it in 2008 so I never knew there was a problem until it started to get worse. I had mine replaced about 3 months ago - Cost me almost $2500 for labour, Nissan paid for parts, but I had to go to the dealership for Nissan...

It seems to me that roundabouts are multiplying in a lot of suburbs, not least in Frankston, where I live. Not a problem, more a nuisance? Then why do so many drivers not see my indicators when I'm turning right at a roundabout? Does anyone else have people blithely driving through & not giving...

Looking back, I have had problems with my YD25 (2007 auto, 60,000klm, owned since 2008) for a couple of years. When it was cold, it would vibrate a bit rougher at idle, especially in drive or reverse. It progressively got worse & I first thought it was the transmission, so serviced that at the...

Hi everybody- I'm wondering what the parameters are for the auto to shift up a gear when coasting down a hill? I drive down a long hill every morning at 60-80 kmh to work and sometimes when I dab on the brakes, it'll shift from 4th to 3rd, thus increasing engine braking. But it doesn't always do...

The R50 does not have a filter, nor does it have provision to fit them, to the best of my knowledge/research. My D40 never had them, as normal, but does have new filters fitted about 2 weeks ago. This has made no discernible difference to the air flow, but as it's so low, it's hard to sense...

Hi everybody - Could anyone tell me what sort of air flow you get from a 2007 STX without the fan on? My R50 Pathfinder doesn't need the fan on most of the time when driving as the airflow is sufficient, but my Navara has bugger-all. Is this normal, before I start getting the bore camera out to...

I had a tinny rattling noise at 2000rpm for 2 years until I found it was the exhaust heat shields. I tightened up the nuts, moved the upper part away from the firewall and the noise has never come back. I should have worked it out earlier as the noise would stop when the engine warmed up, but I...

I got mine from Avenger 4x4, 03 9776 1066, but I got a set of four so I don't know if they have the rears seperately.

Hello -1st post for a long-time lurker on these boards. I thought I should get it up, if only to stop the message saying I haven't posted before to disappear! Just fitted the tail-gate central locking today, followed Krafty's tutorial (Thanks!) and it works a treat. The actuator is still $14.95 btw.
