Hodge has it right. Mine came with these out of the factory - only 3 per wheel and randomly placed on the studs. None were aligned so they were pretty meaningless as supplied. And no fancy spanner gadget to adjust them either. They are not easy to adjust with your fingers.

Sorry. I did get the wrong photo. Thosw are indeed valve caps. What I was meant to show is what Brissie uploaded...Quote:

Nissan work was;
Check/adjust lig nut tension.
Fit 3 indicators per wheel
Put sticker on car
IIRC it was only for vehicles with mags.
If you went in with steelies many dealers (incl the ones local to me) wouldn't bother.
Mine had steelies so I didn't even bother taking it in.
After I bought the CRD, it was serviced at the dealership. It had the indicators on the wheel nuts, yet the bloke at the counter told me my car didn't qualify for the recall. :icon_bonk:
Ah ok yeh I've seen these on trucks before but never a patrol...Quote:

And they only go clockwise.
But yea that's them.
I got a little puller tool with mine.
Ok dumb question time. As I never bothered re-fitting mine on both my Patrols... How in the fark do these things work?Quote:

I understand the truck ones, obviously the pointy things not pointing at one another indicates one nut could be loose...
They slide over the nut once tightened and then once on turn the indicators to the center.Quote:
