I keep hearing that it was the earlier ones that were prone, my questions are..........
What did they do to fix it?
Was it a quick fix? (a panic fix by Nissan)
What year did they fix it?
Mine is april 2006.......is it safe?
I also hear from a good diesel fitter that the EGR is there for a good reason and that I should leave it, I am not a mechanic and this is the first oil burner I have had, so why if Nissan spend millions on development and have all the little intelligent engineers do we (the public) think we know better?

You all seem a friendly lot and pretty clued up (far more than me) I am learning heaps on here, however I still think things are better left alone if they are good to start with.

Please don't think I am being smart, I just want to get everything straight before I go messing with her.
