Hi all

Bought my first terrano swb 3.0 diesel in blue today

Love it and looking forward to getting out

But I have a few issues, fuel gauge don’t work, senders been looked at before so must be something else if anyone has any ideas

I also need a few parts, new drivers seat or a pair, 17in rear wheel cover, interior light, wooden centre dash surround, rear door net that’s not saggy and plastic fittings

Glad to be here and I hope to become active and hear from you

Cheers 👍👍

Welcome aboard.

Sagging tailgate net unfortunately they all do that so slim chance of getting a good one. Good news is that I’ve seen a repair. Basically remove the tailgate door card. You’ll see how the plastic surrounds for the net is fixed through the door card. Carefully remove the surroundings and tighten the net and refit the surrounds. A free fix.

As for fuel gauge could be electrical connections behind guages. Also the wiring loom runs from sender unit to a rubber bung on passenger side corner behind rear bumper. There are several connections in that loom. Also if the fuel lines have been repaired or replaced the connections to sender may of been damaged or disconnected. On drivers side of boot floor a few inch from tailgate there is an inspection hatch under carpet that allows access to sender and fuel lines.

Welcome mate

Saggy door nets are very very common on these

I'll see what condition the one in the garage is that I've got.

If your gauge is dead it's always always an issue sender side from experience so double check buddy
