    sounds like you need to find a mechanic that knows what he is doing

    he is quoting you a stuffed engine as either he wants nothing to do with it
    or his kids need new braces on their teeth

    as your in WA, give Matt at United Fuel Injection a call, and see if he can help you

    he has forgotten more about the nissan motors than most will ever know - (not affiliated, just had awesome service everytime I have been)

    finding good mechanic's in WA who know the Patrols is difficult, but not hard

    Ok. The guy came back. It is the EGR tube assembly that has gone. He is replacing that now. He had a look at the injectors and found the o rings are out of the groove. Replaced those. The rocker cover gasket and the gasket nozzels.

    No worries... EGR and leaking injectors make much more sense than the initial diagnosis

    Dear All, as you know I have had my o rings on the injectors, the coper washers and rocker gasket. I now all of a sudden have a vibration / shudder at low rev's. Could this be the compression of a cylinder or perhaps faulty injectors causing this or do you guys think its more likely something else? It is only at low revs and can only be felt in 4th and 5th gear. It basically only happens between about 60 and about 90. Then it goes away.

    What do you think?

    Get it back to the mechanic who did the work and take him for a drive and see what he says, or much better still as Col said earlier

    I did take him for a drive but he seems to think that it is be drivetrain or axle or something there. It didn't do this before. Let me rather book it in at United Furl Injection and see what they say. Just wanted to know if you guys think vibration could be related. Let me take it to Matt and see how we go. Cheers for your help mate.

    Has the clutch and flywheel been changed at any point.... Do you know if it has a single mass flywheel fitted instead of the dual mass jobby? The single mass flywheel can introduce a vibration / shudder at low revs.

    Is it the original clutch, and the dual mass flywheel. Does it make any noises when cold? The dual mass flywheel could be on the way out.


    Can you feel the vibration through the steering wheel, rather than engine noise / mechanical? Tyres need balancing, some Patrols have an inherent wobble between 80-90 due to front end geometry - especially when they are fitted with suspension lift.
