So it appears that this problem has reared its head again even with changing out the clamps and brand new hoses, along with the rough idle just after start that I mentioned in this thread;
http://www.nissanpatrol.com.au/forum...st-after-start.
Its becoming frustrating but I believe that the two problems may be related.
The fuel filter was changed at the last service I had done which was in July but I have read a few threads on the forums about people making sure you always go with a genuine filter over a aftermarket one. I think the one in there now is a Ryco, I need to check.
Do you guys think changing back to a genuine filter would fix the problem? Im stuck for answers on this.

Had this problem with my 07 CRD DX and was extremely frustrating. Much hair pulling and teeth gnashing! Changing clamps etc.
I do my own servicing and the solution was simple - don't use generic, non Nissan fuel filters - changed to genuine item and problem solved - too easy. Was using Westfilter fuel filters successfully for 12 months until priming problem reared its head.

Awesome thanks Les, going to get one on order. Had the beast in bits yesterday installing the duel batt system and checked the fuel filter which was changed at the last service, low and behold its a Ryco.

Have changed out the offending filter for a genuine one, took it for a good run yesterday and all seems to be well with the world so far. Appears to get better mileage when keeping an eye on the Scanguage and the more power when smashing the loud pedal. Will report if this has been a success or failure!!

So far so good!! We are heading up to Shark Bay and Kalbarri end of Jan which will be a nice decent run so will wait until then before giving the all clear.
