Hey everyone, I've got a 93 terrano automatic.
I can get into 4wd High no problem, but the shifter doesnt want to go back any further than 'neutral' so cant hit 4wd Low.
Am I missing a trick? How do I shift? So far, I'm doing everything in 'park'.
Also, the overdrive light blew yesterday. Is it an easy fix, something I can do myself or is it a dashboard off scenario?
:thumbs
you need to push down when going from nuetrel to low

simple just a few screws. Darwin has some great LEDs for the dash.. PM or search for his info.

Also, the auto box MUST be in Neutral to shift into low range.

Pull your sun visor down, the instructions might be on it. You need to be stationary and in neutral.
Information is in the down load section, workshop 24

with an auto, id say in main box neutral, handbrake on optionally and foot brake depressed.
with last one many cars wont change main auto position, ie N to D or R/P without brake pedal pressed firmly down.

Ah sweet, yes there is something on the visor, but alas, like the rest of the damned car, its all in japanese :nenau
So just to clarify. Stop -> Gear into 'park' -> 4wd H -> gear into 'neutral' -> push down on lever and 4wd L, et voila?

Post a pic of your truck for us will ya, be good to see, especially as it seems its not the european Terrano so none of the above, especially the manual, is likely to apply.... :thumb2
I'm assuming its petrol?

Sure ok, I'll get some pics up on the weekend.
From what I can tell its fairly standard, just with some running boards and bull bars. Not sure if its an after market extra, but the wheel arches seem to be flared, with additional flarey things bolted on too. Allows for BIG wheels :augie
Yea its a 3ltr v6 petrol. Takes 65ltrs of 91 unleaded and will get 450km+ in shitty commuter traffic, so looking forward to getting it on the open road.
The best bit is the paint job. My other car is a subaru GT-B, and I have a fit if so much as a spec of dust is on the paint. With the nissan, even scratches from foliage just 'add character' :clap in that same sense of when the boys compare scars down the pub :naughty

You need to get some ground clearance.....there have been a very few of these on here from time to time but not sure anyone has seriously offroaded one, As you know, they are monocoque construction and sit low on the deck unlike the T2, so likely to need a lift of some kind.

Yea I've noted that too, but I dont think I'll be getting too serious into it just yet - maybe in the new year?
