GU 08 ZD30 Common Rail DX 160k service

[mattchu]

hey i'm new on here and my beast is due for it's 160k service, i have to take it to a mechanic to do to keep my used car warranty but have been quoted over $1100 so due to nearly falling off my chair ive decided to supply the parts neede as i can get service parts for my car a fair bit cheaper than RRP now all that's left is front hubs. what parts are required to regrease front hubs? is it just the hub seal for each side? ive got b/fluid, coolant, front diff oil, man g/box oil, trans case oil, rear diff oil, engine oil plus air,fuel and oil filters. if you know something i've missed please help

Seals and grease I think

Also as this is your first post I'd recommend you make an introduction post it's just a nice thing to do as you'll get a better response

Matt,

Make sure that you grab the right engine oil for the 3 Litre.... you can't just use any diesel oil, and the recommended oils are quite expensive.

How much has it cost you for all the bits to do your own service?

Sorry macca86 I posted an intro now thanks for the response
Mic cheers for the response and yeah I have done my research I got 5w30 hpr diesel and for everything I listed has come to $455 I also had to triple check the fuel filter as I was only use to buying standard fuel filters but cause its common rail the filter @ Nissan goes for around $120+ but through a mate I managed to get air oil and fuel for 100

Hi mattchu - I am assuming this is a 2008 GU - not a GU8?

Wow, We'd tell the customer sorry and go elsewhere if they bring their own parts. Did the mechanic do it?
