The dipstick is reading perfect, the oil is at the top of the normal range from a COLD reading.
Is it overfull?

Mate - haven't had a diesel for a few years, but on start up I wouldn't say excessive smoke.
I went out and checked the oil level cold and it showed full on the dipstick.

Which makes me wonder -...

Nice truck, same model and colour as mine (good colour!).
I just brought a set of auto meter boost and pyro gauges in the black sport comp range from www.egauges.com should arrive soon.

Let the...

Good on ya Fletcha, looks great, still interested in seeing any other types of snorkel on the GU III.

G'day - looking to install a snorkel on the new truck.
I have had Safari in the past and have found them to be of good quality and easy to self-install.
I'm undecided between genuine nissan or...

Yeah mate still here, lots of mods to do, always looking for ideas/information.

Thanks Tim, great forum so far, always love sharing and learning new information.

Welcome, everyone is super friendly and helpful. Great place for a chat or some information.

Welcome, nice truck. Big fan of the GQ.

I once installed a Safari snorkel on the GQ, I didn't have access to the ~90mm hole saw and didn't want to spend the money to purchase. Instead I purchase a new set of drills, drew an outline and...

Great idea, the barn door extender is awsome. Thanks for sharing.

Timbo - there are a few on the market, ARB sell them at a fairly hefty price they are rebadged, can't remember the name. I've been considering a Jayca DIY kit, comes as a circuit, needs soldering and...

Mate what gauges did you end up running? I've been looking at the autometer's, seem to be good quality at a reasonable price.

Welcome, good choice in truck.

What a great joint, for anybody who hasn't been to the River in to see Suzy and Matt get there!
Great times, was up there a few weeks back. You will spend a few beers just looking around at all the...

Has anybody been up recently, I'd love to take the kids out on the weekend for a play in the snow.
Most likely not run some of the tracks Chester ran, done many of those on the dirt-bike, the GU...

G'day Rossco - from Gippsland, Victoria. A stone throw away from the great Victorian High Country!

Belzi - do you mean the MAF? If so, the previous owner not long replaced it, I think it's approx 30,000km old.

G'day - welcome to the forum.

I'd have to agree, I decided to let the market decide whether it was an auto or manual. Very happy the auto was the winner, particulary in the little 3.0L, would recommend the auto to anybody.

Sorry to hijack the thread, two questions if I may:
1.) Can somebody explain the purpose of the dawes valve?
2.) Is the EGR blocking plate difficult to make? I was thinking of using the gasket as...

Snorkel is a great mod, clean cool air, prevents drowning your engine in river crossings. Fun mod to do if you're handy on the tools, as Tim mentioned, make sure they're sealed. Plenty of different...

Looks great, I'm begining my mods with a boost and pyro gauge mounted on the GU pillar. Great info, I used to have my gauges in the GQ in the same spot, always more fun watching the boost gauge than...
