5 grand for the solid gold timing chain and 7 grand for the expert Nissan labour, it's all listed on the genuine dealership price list as parts so people think they are getting a bargain on the labour price.
Another D40 timing chain
- Thread starter steel d40
- Start date

Instill at a loss as to why the repco kit would require vacuum pump removal and the yd25 kit does not. Arnt they both the same thing with double chains, sprockets and tensioners?
I need to keep trying to answer this as theres a huge price difference.
I also have no idea what the vacuum pump is though or why it would require removal.
Am I missing something or do I need education on it.

Hi
have a read of this it might clear things up.
www.navara.asia/showthread.php?t=14405
Over the last months we have had several workshops call us with customers having broken bottom chains.
There is usually 2 to 6 valves bent also valve guides need replacing the heads can be repaired, some cases cams are broken, piston damage occurs however the pistons are tough as the top piston ring grove is iron not aluminium as the rest of the piston ring groves are. Repair cost will vary as to the damage however with our kit included you can expect to fork out 6 grand to have your engine repaired.
If you have an engine failure than have the workshop call me, I have done this work many times and I an happy to point the workshop in the right direction to do the job saving you $$$$$
Feel free to call and I will give advice as to how to diagnose the fault. It is better to be informed and armed with good information than to think it won’t happen to me.

Nothing to do with timing chains, BUT can everyone take 2min and fill out the "MUSTER" Questionnaire to help the committee organise an event that we will all want to attend.
So far they only have 11 members that have done it, i know we can get more then that.
Here is a link to the Questionnaire

Already done
Maybe we would organise a Nissan pit crew to change out timing chains at the next muster?

Maybe we should get Mick Gatto to heavy nissan into a recall.
