Nissan Frontier Navara [continued]

[12vdc]

^^ Figures from user manual: litres(lmp qt)
Dry engine = 7.9 (7)
Drain and refill with oil filter change = 7.6 (6-5/8)
Drain and refill without oil filter change = 7.1 (6-1/4)

I buy 8 litres (4litres per container) and use 7-7.5L, excess is used for topping-up after the 5k kms oil-filter change interval. BTW its moutul crdi fully-synthetic and is good for 10k kms.

the casa dont recommend use of fully synthetic oil... only mineral is used by the casa..

[tidus1203]

Bakit daw? Kaya pala mura PMS ng NAV kasi mineral oil ang gamit...

Hi everyone..anybody na may same problem with my manual navara. Paglipat ng gear na medyo high rpm pagtapak mo sa accelerator parang nag choke.wala kahit diinan tapak. Minsan nasa 6th gear na constant lang takbo bigla nawawala na parang nabubulunan yung makina. Tried replacing my air filter to k&n pero ganun pa rin. Yung casa not much help, d makita problema.pls help.tnx!!

[pogito]

mga sir tanong ko lang. May naka experience nakaya dito ng hard shifting sa 1st and 2nd gear after ng 40km pms? Pero pag matagal mo ng gamit, ok na uli.. pinaltan kase ng m/t transmission oil.

[pogito]

40t km pala hindi 40km

Hey, anyone kind enough to post a few 16" rims that fit on a Navara? As far as I know it's unique bolt pattern makes it hard to fit aftermarket rims.

Thanks!

I experienced this when casa replaced my fluid with wrong type of fluid and after i adjusted my clutch play.. Fluids should be:

Final drive - 75W-140 API GL-5 for non-LSD
Transfer - 75W-85 or API GL-4
If your casa happens to put a differnet viscocity, that might be the cause..

Another thing, I have posted somewhere dito about the return-spring of clutch.. It does not fully return back to position, its somewhere stucked in slightly-depressed.. Try to pull the clutch pedal upwards (sungkit). Took me some months scratchin my head before i solved the issue..

[cydepx44]

ganyan din akin. i have to double clutch pa in the morning until warmed up na ang engine, otherwise all day na sya magi-inarte

* 12vdc: so far may isa pang may ganyan problem katulad ng kay rommel, si sir julezj. according to boybakal ganyan symptoms nun unit nya dati. nakailan balik din sa casa until they resolved it. ...general fuel system cleaning. good news was he didn't have to pay one centavo

[12vdc]

Yes, usually fuel delivery problems nga.. and kung mapabayaan, sisirain ang pump and injectors.

Kaya in my upgrade, im planning to install pressure valve as filter-check device para alam kaagad kung restricted ang upstream.

Wala pa bang reported SCV problems just like ung perennial sa tadpole?

[AKI125]

Been using hurricane drop in filter for my nav for more than a year now. Im very much satisfied with its performance and filtration

[12vdc]

For sale - M/T EGR tube..

lol

[locoroco777]

haha! sir, ano yung bina block dyan? yung nasa right or left?

[12vdc]

haha! sir, ano yung bina block dyan? yung nasa right or left?

Its either side. Actually mine already got blocked in the intake-side but i dont want a useless part hanging around so i decided to remove the tube.

Got challenged with that very tight nut, took me up to night in my garage..


The trick i used..

tight nut - spammer - crowbar - car jack..

Yes.. i literaly used a crowbar to remove a tight nut..hehe


After spending 3hours in that tight nut, realized im barely halfway in blocking the exhaust-side..

Hope some machine shop is still open this Sunday to cut that 4.5mm stainless sheet..or else another challenge for me to cut with a jig...

[12vdc]

Some more pics:

Intake side


Exhaust side

The nut moved a little so i have to wind it back.. How am i supposed to do that with that alternator blocking??#*?

Star/torx socket in place...

OK i need a super thin wrench...

Ok i dont have a super thin wrench... vice grip would do, hope the starkey wouldnt break.


Hayy..im mechanically challenged.. What a great way to spend a vacation

S - Spanner kailangan mo dyan. i sawed off one of my combi wrenches then welded an extension

kaya yan jigsaw and straight file, sandali lang specially pag may table vise ka. it would'nt hurt to have a drill press also

* locoroco: try it you might like it, hehe. try mo lang muna block exhaust side, pag wala problem saka ka na gumawa nun blocking plate. navara kasi may mga version na wala talaga egr and catalytic converter, e.g. caribbean editions

[AKI125]

Haha! Im planning to have it dyno soon. Wala lang kasig time lately pero nakausap ko na si raul, i just need to inform him 2 days ahead para mabook niya ako
