Nissan Navara NP300

Probably sir. By the way, my rear axle seal is leaking again, i.e., for the 3rd time. I will be taking it to the dealer over the weekend. I hope that they do more than just replace the seal.

In this case, it is proven na meron manufacturing issue itong kaso ng rear power train ng Navara. Opinion ko lang to sir..depende kasi siguro sa batch ng units na lumabas sa planta. Siguro ang supplier ng differential assy at certain production batch ay iba. Kaya halos lahat ng mga supplied differential assy may mga problema.

Wondering why Navara doesn't have Rear Differential Lock Button on their 4wd compare to other countries which it is included in their package.

local distributor can configure whatever vehicle they want to sell.

local distributor can configure whatever vehicle they want to sell.

Probably with the Vehicle Dynamic Control (VDC) & Traction Control System (TCS) features ng 4x4 nya in which cguro ang theory ng local distributor na sufficient na cya kaya hindi na nila dinagdag yung Rear DIfferential Lock features. Pero sana nagbigay na lang sila ng customized option nya kahit magbayad ang customer for an additional features like Rear Diff Lock para mas mautilize cya Lalo.

hello mga sir good afternoon. I bought a skidplate four our navara since im using it here it in province and i think it will be a good protection. tried to install it by my own unfortunately im having a difficulty installing the rear part. Parang hindi sakto yung yung turnilyuhan. Pero when im looking at the other skidplates ng navara parang same lang naman ng hole location.

Can someone enlighten me on how to install this. Thanks a lot

Once I was driving I felt na jerky yung sasakyan, and noticed na erratic ang tachometer. Bumababa to about 600RPM and tumataas ng about 1.1kRPM. It is an A/T so medyo controllin sa traffic, need ko i-neutral every now and then.

It was my erpat's NP300 and sabi ko ipa-casa na agad since under warranty pa naman.

I went on vacation so hindi ko alam yung nangyari but his driver said na yung injection pump was replaced, di ko sure kung may iba pang parts. This is at 15000KMs. Kwento sa akin is that ilang beses nya pinabalik since andun pa din yung erratic RPMs before it was totally replaced.

The problem was so severe na guys from the Nissan plant went to inspect the vehicle.

So far ok pa naman ngayon after about a month.

Hello po!

I am planning to buy the 2020 Navara EL Calibre 4x2 AT as a daily and also to replace our venerable family car - 96 Toyota Corolla.

Got interested with the Navara due to its ride quality, good looks and value for money. But being a Toyota owner for more than 2 reliable decades, I still have some reservations if ever the Nissan Navara can match the reliability and longevity of a Well-built car from the 90s.

For those who have owned the D23 for a while now, would like to ask some questions:
- how is the build quality after couple of years?
- What are the major issues that you encountered in the first 3 years?
- how is the fuel consumption?
- is the maintenance cost reasonable?


Thank you for the input!

Build quality is good, I'd say. The issue on the leaking rear axle seal is still there though (I had mine replaced 3x already and it is still leaking since the last job). FC is a bit on the high side as opposed to my 2012 Innova with the same engine displacement. Cost of PMS is reasonable, but I have no idea as regards parts replacement costs once out of warranty.

Test drive.. steering is a bit ... you'll find out if you want that daily..

Minsan iba yung tunog ng makina ng navara ko. Minsan din naman rough yung idle. Meaning mas nag vivibrate yung makita yung rpm medyo mas mababa sa 750rpm. Nasa 650 cguro pag nangyayari.

Thrice na nangyari. 19k pa yung takbo ng akin. 2019 EL AT

tsaka minsan yung brakes biglang kumakagat kahit konti lang ang apak. I notice this pag umuulan or mahamog sa umaga.

This is the only vehicle I own na may drum brakes. Is this a trait of drum brakes?

mine is 5 years old now. got it may 2015. 47k on the clock.

likes:
ride quality
cold AC
roomy cabin
looks
power

dislikes:
slow steering/wide turning radius
huge A-pillar can obstruct outward view
i don't find the front seats comfortable, especially the headrest
very basic stereo (which i replaced with a pioneer 2DIN)
hard to park in tight parking spots as its practically as long as my grandia
tranny can be jerky or hunts for gears at times
the suede like interior trimmings attract dirt like a magnet
weak stock horns (which i replaced with a europa)

maintenance:
i just follow the casa recommended service intervals - 1k, 5k 10k then every 10k after that. i think it's just the same as my other vehicles, if not slightly cheaper because of the longer intervals. now i just bring it to the gas station for oil changes. i just buy orig filters from banawe or the casa, and buy any oil that meets the required api rating and viscocity specs.

others:
fc is ok for me. a bit high in the city compared to my innova and fort, but pretty good on long drives.
mine is still low mileage i would think but haven't had any major issues so far (knock on wood)
early on there was this weird knocking sound when running over a rough patch. after replacing the steering column, some hoses, and some adjustments, seems ok now (all covered by warranty)
front shocks now starting to show signs of a leak (no longer covered at this point)
steering is on the heavy side if you're coming from a car. i've been driving SUVs and AUVs for most of my life so i'm used to it.
overall its holding up pretty well and i'm quite happy with this purchase.

My input on deslikes:
1. True. Mahirap sa parking dahil sa wide turning radius. It will take 2 or more extra maneuvers on tight parking as compared to my other cars.
2. Bulky front hood specially on the raised curvy edge styling on the sides. It obstructs driver's view
3. True. Bulky A-pillar. This is the first thing I noticed the very first time I sat on the driver's seat - plus - the bulky side mirror too close to the A-pillar with very small gap for open view outward.
4. Problematic on u-turns. Madalas nabibitin. Kapus sa kabig
5. It does not meet the designed 1ton capacity as advertised as a pick up truck.
6. The design of steering horn button is bad. It is prone to accidental firing. Madalas napipindot maski wala kang intention bumosina.
7. No grab handle on the B-pillar for rear passengers
8. Aside from Dmax, I find it a bit noisy engine as compared to others like hi-lux and ranger

inisip ko nalang naka Porsche ako

eto pa pala haha tama sir madalas din ako na accidental firing dito

naka timing chain kasi sir kaya maingay. same ng dmax.

[mokong22]

yan din isa ayaw ko sa np300 yung hood, naka bulk nakaka sagabal sa driving vision mo, they sacrifice driving vision para sa overall design ng np300, wide turn radius at medyo heavy steering, what i like is very comfort, i think its the most comfortable pick up right now

yan sir ang isa sa pet peeve ko sa lahat ng pick up na na drive ko. ang laki ng turning radius. no doubt aggravated pa with its length.

Hindi pala ako nagiisa sir..
Going back to accidental firing of horn..nakow!! Nakakahiya sa mga tao or motorist sa harap mo "what for, did you blow ur horn??" tapos tingnan ka ng masama. To stop this, balak ko kalsohan yung horn button sa baba na madalas nasasagi para hindi mag fire. Sa middle ka nalang mag press, wag sa baba.
