Re: Good/Bad Nissan Service: Your Patrol story
Edenvale Nissan het my baie gehelp vir parte wat en nodig gehad het!
Kempton I/C Nissan gee my baie probleme om parte vir my te kry en hulle kry die verkeerde parte ook.

Re: Good/Bad Nissan Service: Your Patrol story
Hi Chaps,
I haven't been able to read all the comments - just opened the thread. I am one of those that have marked "excellent".
John du Toit Nissan in Lichtenburg (NW), and specifically Arrie, workshop manager, have given me excellent service since my old '85 Safari Patrol landed here from Limpopo in 2011. He has managed to keep it running smoothly and has always been able to find genuine parts for the mechanics - without knowing about Dawid I believe!
Prices - yes, it's been costly. But that is a Nissan issue, not dealership. I drive a Navara 2.5 td as well, and when I had to replace the injectors and turbo in one go (ouch!), they really helped to keep costs down by sourcing the turbo from Nissan's supplier direct and matching the Bosch quote for injectors. Might be because I am a long-time client, but I find their service excellent, real platteland familiarity.
That's my
worth. So, if you can drive to the middle of nowhere for it, it might just be worth a shot!
