    Transmission torque converter failure

    My 2018 Series 4 Y62 has now covered 135000 km, much of it towing a 3300 kg van in 5th at 90 kph. When towing, I change gears manually. The transmission was fully serviced at 60000 km, then again at...

    Thanks again, ET, for your excellent info. And I agree with your EGR observation......that's one of the reasons I jumped from an LC200 to the Y62, although I did install a catch can early in its life...

    Fan roar

    The thermo-couple fan on my S4 intermittently roars, sometimes for upwards of 20 seconds, at start-up, irrespective of whether the engine is hot or cold - an irritating feature, especially in caravan...

    Thanks again. Good advice. Looks as though I've hit a brick wall on this one. One of a couple of irritating issues in what I'm otherwise finding to be a pretty good vehicle.

    Thanks.....that's what I suspected. I've already had a brawl with Nissan about the recent 30000 km service, and I'm not inclined at all to pay for them to "re-register" the TPMS every time I rotate...

    TPMS disable

    Because my Series 4 TPMS sensors are fitted only to 4 wheels, each time I rotate the 5 wheels, either as part of the normal rotation procedure or due to a puncture, the warning light illuminates and...

    TPMS pressure adjustments

    The TPMS in my 2018 Ti is based on a tyre pressure of 35 psi. However, when towing my van I increase the rear tyre pressures to about 46-48 psi. Likewise, on unsealed roads I may go down as low as 25...

    Have any forumites installed a Scanguage 11 in their Y62? I removed one from my LC200 before I sold it and am hoping to install it in my Y62 Series 4.
    As in the LC, I'd like to be able to monitor...
