i definitely include myself as a messer and a guesser,though slowly experience has shown me to stop. 4 hours trying to get a back box off a vauxhall carlton with no success,even bought a blow torch.whipped it down to a garage and a pneumatic chisel sorted it in less than a minute! i have just...

thanks for that reply toolbox,i am going to adjust the tappets asap and i will ask about locally for getting a dti gauge on the fuel pump. are you implying that if the no1 injector isnt up to scratch it can cause excess knock,and are there any other symptoms a dodgy one starts causing? it is...

or i could just set off in 3rd and keep it under load ! i suspect this is yet another thread without a proper remedy.beyond,mini filter,maf or change the fuel filter and lines there appears to be no help available

if you google terrano misfire,a link comes up to diesel bobs tuning tips and when you arrive at the page there is a list of common faults with different vehicles. as regards terrano 2.7(doesnt identify age or wether t2 etc) it states the springs inside the injector pump are prone to collapse...

there is nothing normal about it, if i take my revs up slowly from tickover there is no misfire and no smoke,if i rev it quickly there is. unfortunately the mot test procedure is to quickly rev the motor and the ensuing cloud of smoke(mostly unburnt fuel ) can mean you wont pass the emissions...

i have lived with it for nearly a year(since i got it),had a few comments!,then today the bloke across the road ran over looking concerned and said, "bloody hell,whats up with that?" Nowt says I,cold start mechanism advancing the timing and he walked away shaking his head as the noise steadied...

do you think yours is noisy when cold?

yes i can understand the ignition advancing and diesel knock but still think its too loud,or is everyone elses the same?

i had a thought that if the timing changed when cold and the valves didnt seat 100% due to the tappets needing adjusting then some of the noise could be combustion resonating around the exhaust manifold or inlet.but thats just me guessing!,and hoping for a cure. i just cannot believe that they...

hello,i have a 2001 2.7tdi,sounds like a bag of nails from cold,oil change never made the slightest difference,i have done 3 at 5k intervals,its well serviced from new(full nissan history).it quietens after a minute or so or driving a short distance. it just cannot be normal,if you had a couple...

thanks for the reply,have sent you a pm

hello to all,been searching ebay(got some breakers numbers to ring) and realised this is probably the place to ask. so my swb commercial has no rear seats but all the holes for seatbelts etc. are there and i have seen some swb van types with seats fitted,bottomline is i would like some seats if...

when i say a nissan technician i mean someone who actually understands what each part does and why and there must be a few out there. thats why i have not been to a nissan dealer because there is no guarantee that anyone in the workshop has got themself clued up. an eighteen year old reading a...

So its an all or nothing situation with the flap,something is trying to work,i think 2 of the solenoids control the flap ,one of which pulses rapidly to get the variation. this forum desperately needs a nissan technician on it otherwise its all guessing and trial and error.of course if expense...

to makeitfit, the fact that your valve opens when you pull off the pipe suggest you have vacuum going to it all the time. the fault might lie with one of the solenoids. i am guessing you will have three of them same as mine and the pipe fitments on them should be colour coded. the solenoids are...

i have the same throttle control valve set up,the workshop manual says you should be able to see the plunger at the bottom move up and down ,which opens or closes the flap or anywhere in between, in response to increase in revs. this is controlled by the vacuum supplied to it which itself is...

oilcatcher and intercooler i have a 2001 tdi that definitely is not 100 per cent on power,know this as i have experienced it running better though only for a short time,been checking most things that get mentioned on here,cleaned pipes and intercooler etc., absolutely no difference. i am still...

hello,if i removethe vacuum pipe that is connected to the actuator which in turn is connected to the rod that opens and closes the wastegate on the turbo there is absolutely no difference in the way my t2 tdi 2001,drives. so question is,if everything worked as it should,ought there to be a...

it definitely has one,i think i read somewhere the the swb commercials were produced for the german market hence the egr valve.

any advice as to the effect on performance of the egr valve being always open, 2001 II 2.7 tdi commercial.
