Hi new nissan chap here!!!

[TII]

Well I have just sold my Land Rover 90. I am now about to get a Terrano. I wanted a motor that was still a 4x4 but a bit more reliable on the road. The Landy sucked money like no tomorrow. So I am getting a L reg Terrano. Only done 129000 and is pretty clean for her age. I have been told that these engines in the terrano are pretty solid. Anything I should look at? She is clean all round!!! Anyway looking forward to offroading with some of you chaps on here and look forward to meeting some of you in my area. Thanks see you soon.

Hi there and welcome aboard. One thing I can suggest is check the front auto locking hubs. If they have not been used there is a part called a brake ring that breaks. Check previous threads about 4wd not working. Other than that give it a good service. When you become a full member you'll have access to Downloads section in the quick links where you'll find stacks of how to's:thumbs

Thanks for that have tested out the 4WD and it all works. I used to have a frontera so I know about the front auto hubs issue.

One question I do have is my turbo whistles quite loud when I put my foot down is that normal?

Apart from that she drives like a dream!!!! :thumbs

Just bought a very similar T2 and the turbo on it doesn't make any noise at all. Mind you it'd be hard to hear it over the rest of the engine and other noises. :augie

My engine is nice and quiet my turbo makes a loud whistle noise at hi speed or hi revving. Apart from that she is a very good motor.

NO its in the normal filter housing!!! I can hear it when I am doing around 70. My mate who has a Nissan patrol said that sounds normal. However the engine pulls ok and does not smoke. Its only done 131000 for a L reg thats pretty low esp for a diesel.

Here are some pics of my little motor. I had a Land Rover Defender before, changed due to to much maintenance. I am hoping my new Terrano is easier on the pocket as I have heard so many good things about this 2.7TD engine!!!
