Have you checked the torsion bar settings, I had a similar problem caused by exhaust fitters removing the torsion bar to fit the new stainless exhaust and not setting it to the correct height when finished. In my case the nearside front tyre wear was much greater than the offside but the...

Poped down to see the "Truck" gearbox now out and down at front due to torsion bars being disconnected so at least they are on with it :-) My wifes Brother in Law who is a mechanic (and a good one but to far away to use) also let slip that the place to get gearbox bearings from is Royce Power...

Had to make a decision as my wife needs her "truck" back on the road and I don't fancy doing it on the drive in subzero temperatures. In the end I booked it in with the local HGV garage (I could freewheel it into their yard if I had too). They have been in business for longer than I can...

I drove my 3.0 manual Terrano on a 90 mile round trip on Friday night and by the time I got home the gearbox was making horid noises in 1st 2nd 3rd and 5th so I suspect one of the bearings has broken up :(. My local Nissan agent quoted £105 (2 hours) to drop the box a couple of hours to fix it...

This might sound silly but try your local motor factors as many flex pipes are standard lengths/end fitting the motor factors have have look-up tables. Good luck.

I have owned a 2005 3.0 since new and after 80k miles the only engine problem has been the high speed oil pressure senser (I am now on number 4). It aveages 33mpg day to day but on a run it gets nearer to 40mpg if driven with a light right foot. Towing is a dream loads of power and pleanty of...

Sorry at the moment the roof bars are a keeper as they come in very useful from time to time. They were supplied by a Nissan Dealer and are branded Nissan but I don't know who manufactured them. If I can find the original fitting instructions I will see if they have any more details.

I have a set of Nissan branded roofbars (no permanent rails on car) and I have never had any problems with them coming loose. The only slight moan is the distance between the front and rear bars when fitted is not great and you need to be carefull when putting large loads on them. The biggest...

I have run a 3.0L manual from new so 6 years and 85,000 miles later what do I think. Simple its a great motor loads of grunt for towing and off road returning around 33mpg. But do carry a spare high pressure oil senser as the beast gets through one about every 20,000 miles and the persistant...

Been there more than once, you might have to use a chain type filter remover, the strap types are sometimes not strong enough. The filter can will become very distorted but it will come off. As suggested above removal from the car does make the task easier. The problem is usually caused by no...

Problem now sorted. I carefully drilled out what was left of the old connector with a 1mm drill then tapped the connector housing with a screwdriver to shake out the green corroded remains of the old pin. The new light assembly was then wiggled home to clean the crimp. Finally the connector...

Hi Chaps, My terrano number plates lights were not working and investigation showed it was due to positive conector pin within the light bulb housings corroding through. This has left the bit of pin stuck in the connector so I connot fit my new (and very expensive) number plate lights. Does...

Yes its a common problem, my 2005 3.0 is just about to have its 4th sensor fitted, they were subject to a Nissan recall in 2005. Part number for sensor is 25240-2X901 it is a black sensor with a yellow band just below the connector or a complete kit for the modification can be obtained using...

I have a set of 16mm chains for my Terrano. When fitted to the rear wheels as stated in the vehicle manual the truck will drive through very deep snow and mud but loves to go in streight lines due to the limited slip diff, when this happens just back up a little and try turning again. Do not fit...

Problem now sorted, bush (Nissan part No 32861-01G00) replaced at bottom of gear lever. The old bush had warn allowing it to slip of the ball at the bottom of the gear lever. Getting access to the top of the gearbox took a phone call to my dealer to find out how to remove the facia of the...
