What to look out for when buying a 3ltr motor wise?

Hi Guys and girls,

Mate is looking at buying a 3ltr Patrol, and asked if and when did they fix the 3ltr grenading issue?

I don't ever recall reading anything about it ever been fixed by Nissan.

Cheers

Yeah the crd started in 07 but had some minor issues in its first year hence my suggestion.

Did they actually fix the issue

If yours is mid 07, then they were definitely fixed by 08 :harhar: ..... I think the only things that definitely don't break on the 07 models are the door locks

Q. What to look out for when buying a 3 Litre motor?
