Bernadette here and I'm a Newby

[marcsain]

So hello well actually I know nothing about cars:) so funny, yes I know seeing I'm on a site for cars. But wait I'm here to help hubby fix my Nissan.
I actually wanted to download the 1998-Nissan-Patrol-Manual.pdf (51.3 KB, 510 views) but can not do so because I/we must make 25 post.
So I guess this is my first post don't know what I'm going to post for 24 more post??

The manual i am looking at has 1250 pages and it does not tell me if it is talking about a TD42 or an RD28.. cant imagine they are teh same? maybe?

Anyone else able to help this lady.
