Re: 4.8 Ratkas.

I check my 4.8 yesterday. It pulls away in first gear, wheather in manual or auto.
But the torque convertor does a very good job. I have not gotten stuck in the sand on pull away yet. If you apply fuel wisely you should not have a problem.

Re: Coil lengths

Its possible that they may be swap around. Few people know this fact and pay attention to it. Its better to measure inside between bump stops or from the bottom centre of the mag to the inside edge of the fender. Also make sure that tyres are pump even. ( this sounds silly but I have found it to mak...

Re: Over heating problems

Yes, get the car up to normal temps. Put heater on full warm. The while idling you remove the cap. You will see the bubbles and a poor stream of water come out. Continue until you see a solid strong stream of water comming out. Put the cap back. Wait a bit and do it again until their is no more air ...

Re: Over heating problems

Right at the back against the fire wall is a bleed pipe on the 4.8. Its not a srew. Just blanked off with a cap. But its the highest point on the water system. I bled mine with it and there is no issues. My reason for bleeding was not overheating but a pipe that needed replacement. Hence I lost wate...

Re: Dunlop MT

Looking at fanus first picture of when the dunlops was new. I cannot beleive they have any grip on tar or gravel at speed limit speeds. There is almost no contact with the tar in compareson to to the AT's next to it.

Re: Dipstick for 4.8 auto

Is ja. Maar die mense verwag as die kar daar ingegee word vir n diens dat hulle darem die level kan check. Jan alleman het nie n garage vol gereeds skap en lus vir self aan sy voertuig werk nie. Dis hoekom hy hom na Nissan vat vir n diens. Want die handelaar se stamp is mos veronderstel om iets te b...

Re: 2004 Patrol 4.8 GRX SUV

Jy het n 2008 3.0di gekoop. Dit gaan oor supply en demand. Die 4.8 is meer in demand as die 3.0. Die laaste paar maande was die 4.2TD die meeste in demand.

Dis maar net my opinie :mytwocents:

Re: Dipstick for 4.8 auto

Wat crazy scary is, is die feit dat na die huidige Y61 patrol nou al 17jaar opi mark is en deur hulle verkoop en gediens word. Hulle nog nie n clue het nie. Wat gaan die situasie wees met die nuwe Y62? Hys nog meer complicated. Eienaars kan maar net hoop dat hulle so goeie job in die fabriek gedoen ...
