Hi everyone, has anyone on here ever swapped the turbo on a 2.5TD Pathy? Mine has the classic Police Siren sound, i've checked the pipework and all looks fine, it does it loudly when cold but also still does it when engine up to temp so I'm assuming its out of balance or bearings gone or something. ...
Ouch, thats like Range Rover MPG! However i guess fuel costs less in the US right? I mean diesel in the UK at the moment is £1.19 per litre. ($1.54) obviously costs more on the motorway services, can be upto £1.40. Must admit though I am quite happy with the fuel consumption of the pathfinder, I use...
Haha I just fitted some cross bars on the roof rails! I want to mount a light bar to them and also an awning when i can afford one, so i'll have to live with the mpg. accepted that you dont buy a truck like this for good mpg.
@fogman Thanks for the advice, just to let everyone know I got Nissan to come out and test the chassis on the truck. It passed the test without any problem.

The turbo d...
i'm quite surprised it can hold up after years of use, its a neat product. my truck has a fair bit of chrome on it (mirrors, rear door handles, bull bar etc) but for the moment i'm not bothered by it, may change later on though!
Thanks for the replys guys, I did read about the chassis corrosion issue, and before i bought it i checked it over and it looks to have been undersealed throughout, but i didnt realise nissan offered the service to check it out so i think i'll check that out thanks a lot! good to hear the gauges are...
does anyone run aftermarket gauges? thinking to put in oil pressure, maybe a water temp gauge not sure how reliable stock one is? or turbo boost, any tips?
another question i have is aftermarket gauges... i come from a mitsubishi world and a water temp gauge is pretty much essential to avoid a headgasket failure, do people fit aftermarket gauges to the pathfinders or are the stock gauges quite reliable?

Planning on using it for overlanding / camping around the UK and Europe. its a 2.5 Diesel manual truck. pretty tidy got a couple of jobs i need to do on it but nothing major, anything i should watch out for? any UK members able to offer any advice for...
