Just to clarify. Although I would love to name and shame them there is no use and I am not that kind of person. :) I just will tell others I know not to go there.

Ah yes. I have learned that the hard way this time. Wish there was some way of ruining his business.lol But hey they are all the same.

I have purchased from the wreckers a manual gearbox for my Nissan Patrol. It is a 5 speed manual with transfer case delivered to the mechanics. $650 . The mechanic said it would cost for him to...

will do that on Monday. Thanks for that. I have bene looking online and most places say they can't other than Nissan.

I just don't understand NO wreckers have them at all. Apparently they go so quick as they are often going on these cars.

Nah I was nice as I may need to buy one new.lol I just said ok and i might be able to guilt him later in a better price.lol

Bugger. He just rang me back and said he gave me the wrong price.lol It is $442.42 A lot more than I want to pay. I will keep searching for one.

I was a bit shocked at the price. As everyone said it would be heaps more expensive. As to find one at a wreckers it is near impossible.lol I have rung about 10 of them have failed to find one. :)

Hey Well Nissan themselves have given me a quote on the air box and they said that with filter and clips it will cost me. $186.00 and to fit will be $55.

Got the radio to work. It need the security pin for some reason. Finally have music.

I am getting it replaced Simon. It doesn't keep together it keeps wiggling apart. Also when I washed the car that got wet and the whole car wouldn't start. lol

Mine was held on by wire but the guy at Kmart removed it as he thought it was a hazzard.lol

Hey me again. I am researching some tyrs for later on to buy. At present I have Wranglers RT/S P265/75R16 tyres on the car. Now they are really not quiet good in wet weather and dont really stack up...

Yah it is like the top of the air box has just exploded off.lol Yeah They are recommeding I replace it with a pod filter?

Oh and car is now starting on gas and not conking if not chocked at traffic lights. MMMM

Will do. And Kmart have apologised and assured me it wont happen again. Im like I know it wont.lol As you wont ever have the car.lol

Yeah I will be. 3 of them were to do with the gas. there were two that were to do with the fuel. They were connected before I took them to kmart so I am assuming they are meant to be connected

Yeah that is the thing. I have found that sometimes when I ask them to show me the part they are stumped and I quickly move on to a new mechanic. I dont like to be told something needs doing when it...

Well I went under the hood today and found out that the air cleaner connector to the motor was off. Once I banged that carefully back on the car started without cranking and also ran smoothly on...

Oh now just make me feel better - The 5th gear has gone on holiday. I am going to get the money together today and get this fixed.

Yeah I dont do the damsil.lol I actually have shocked a few of them by saying I have researched it. I also like for them to prove to me what part needs fixing. I have never been burnt yet.

Patch doing it myself would result in me pulling it apart and not knowing where the bolts go.lol

But I will be contacting a mechanic I have found and see what they say.

Thanks Tony. You have confirmed some of the stuff I have just been reading. I will totally be contacting a mechanic tomorrow and getting a quote. Thanks again.

Yeah ok. I might actually find someone and get them to do a quote on how much to fix all the issues. EEEK maybe I dont wanta know.lol

Todd Oh just going off road with it.lol

I will go and have a look.
