hi,just joined the navara forums..I live in aruba, and imported a nissan navara from holland. this is one great truck,but I think I have run in a big problem.
for the first month the truck ran great,but then slowly began to detoriate.the problem is not in the high end,but in the low. the idle becomes very rough,car shudders..and what I also noticed is that I have a lot of back pressure when i remove the oil filler cap.I know a thing about diesels,and know this is not normall..now my concern is the cetane rating from the aruba gasoil..
I know the navara needs at least a 50 cetane rating,,and in aruba it is always been a bit of a mystery what you get. from what I understand so for,,it is in the 44 range.could this be the cause right now of the rough shuddering idle and the back pressure issue??I mean, when the oil filler cap is removed,you reallly feel it blowing air out..hope you guys can give me some good news or advice on this one.
thanks so much,,keep it up.
cheers
