    Coolant / brake fluid advice for y60 patrol

    Yeh I've had no issues with green, and it's what was in mine when I got it. Like Zac, I'll keep using green, it's what most of the Aussie's on the Trol forums (at least those running the 4.2) recommend as well.

    front wipers stopped working

    If the wiper motor is still working I'd guess the wiper linkage has probably gone? :nenau If you remove the windscreen scuttle panel you'll get access but that's all I can tell you as I've never done it on my Trol let alone a Terrano!

    Front diff issue

    Also, I'd say your best bet for replacement ring and pinon is a breakers although you might have to buy a whole axle. Either that or see if you can import new gears from Japan or Oz etc. Try https://nissan-europe.epc-data.com/ or https://partsouq.com/ One thing that occurs to me is that a 3.0...

    Front diff issue

    RE4RO1A is just the gearbox code (although that's slightly odd as it should be the heavier duty RE4RO3A in a Trol). Like I said Trol front diffs are all H233, the HG just means you have H233 diffs front and rear. The "46" is the diff ratio, means you have 4.6 ratio pinion and ring gear. You...

    Front diff issue

    FYI the axle code HG43 on the plate just means you have H233 diffs front and rear (the HG part) with a 4.3 diff ratio (the 43 part). If the code was HH it would mean your rear diff was a H260 diff (bigger one mainly found on the leaf sprung utes and not on any UK spec Trols far as I know). The...

    Front diff issue

    Diff type is H233. Agree with Rick, I suspect a CV or shaft.

    4WD Do's and Don't

    2H to 4H can be done on the fly, max 40kph if you have auto hubs, max 80kph if you have fixed or locked manual hubs. I've always went on the basis you should be stationery and in neutral before engaging 4L :nenau

    Which Petrol & Oil is optimum for Y60

    On the basis that it's basically the petrol version of my 4.2 diesel (I believe the blocks are near as damn it the same) I'd go a semi synthetic 10w 40. I use Comma Eurolite in my 4.2 diesel and I see Comma recommend the same for the petrol.

    Auto Transmission fluid ?

    Possibly bro but better to have the right stuff as the wrong kind of ATF can trash the box :nenau Been a common problem for the Aussies as Japan Dexron ratings are slightly different than the ones in Oz (Trols use the same gearbox just a HD version).

    Auto Transmission fluid ?

    AQF should do perfectly fine although I see Comma recommend AQM. My preference would be AQ3 though, that's what I use in my Trol and will be backwards compatible with any boxes speccing AQM...

    Anyone changed a dual mass flywheel for a solid one on a Pathfinder or Navara

    Kept forgetting to post in this :doh Yeh I changed to a SMF in my Y61 Patrol. You will find there is more vibration no matter whether the clutch is engaged or not as you've lost the cushioning effect of the DMF. See Direct Clutch Service's info page (that's where I got mine)...

    Oil pressure gauge

    Yep go electrical :thumb2 Use the connection for the low pressure sender next to the oil filter and turbo. Thread into the turbo banjo bolt there is 1/8 BSPT from memory, but you'll find most pressure gauge senders will come with adaptors to suit different threads. I used a TIM gauge for my...

    Terrano 12v+ Permanent

    I could be (probably am �� ) wrong but I read that as the 12v permanent for the radio memory rather than the main feed when the ignition is on ��

    2.7 Alternator Upgrade

    Like I said bro, many trucks including the Patrols as standard have the S connected to the B Terminal although to sense as accurately as possible it should be as near the battery +ve as possible. Common Trol mod is to extend the S wire so it connects to the battery +ve.
