5 BLOWN UP GU's

[Crate]

Yeah odo readings and build dates would be interesting 3D if you can get them!

Hell would freeze over well before Nissan would admit there is an issue and or do a recall. Its forums such as this where you find out whats going on about the place . Thanks John for keeping us in the loop. Feel sorry for the owners that have had this misfortune.

5 GUs all kitted out is a lot of dollars sitting in a workshop.
From what a gather most lost oil pressure, but as I said Ill take a bit of paper and get any
common theme I can find. If anyone is after a 4.2 grey or black top in Melb drop me a PM for info.
I'll head down there shortly

Ok best to my knowledge one 3ltr is getting a Duramax conversion and sold his motor to another who blew his up.
I was told the wrong info seems most are 2002-2003 models varying mileage, one only has 47K genuine Ks on it.
And is on its second motor as replacement Crate motor failed as well. One had low oil pressure the rest had cracked heads.
As for the cost of removing the oil pump and inspecting and re tightening it the price I was given was $2500, taking into account
gearbox/tranny will need to come out as well as sump then re-gassing aircon etc.,Not a small job. Question is it worth $2500 or even $1500
for peace of mind or is it worth the gamble on the CRD.
Another one is coming in next week, what I want to know is when they fail is it just driving
around the Burbs or sitting on 100KPH hour after hour

Don't shoot the messenger that's what they told me yesterday.

All good TD. A lot of people always confuse the Di and CRD.

I reckon we should all sell our patrols just in case

Yep just sold my patrol. Injector pump gone. Say good night. Sold it for 3000. I figured I'd get 6-8000 for a 2000 dx di patrol in good condition minus 3500 for new injector pump so I'm happy with the price I got. But I'm leaving the zd30 club and joining the td42 club
