smithie 2,424 Posted December 10, 2014 Report Share Posted December 10, 2014 i THINK the d22 snaps a con rod anytime after 100k putting a hole in engine caseing might be wrong Quote Link to post Share on other sites
smithie 2,424 Posted December 10, 2014 Report Share Posted December 10, 2014 the d22 is a capable motor but if you click this link it just might put you off http://www.motortrader.com/carmaker-news/nissan-hit-by-watchdogs-exploding-navara-claims/ the earlier ones might be ok but i expect not.. do your homework Quote Link to post Share on other sites

belucky 708 Posted December 11, 2014 Report Share Posted December 11, 2014 the early ones are bomb proof mate ,they have the same engine as the terrano, on the subject of the d22 2002 onwards they had a manufacturing problem that made them chuck the big ends from around 60,000 miles on ,, theres a firm in the north east sells navaras with the engines modified with a good guarantee, ,big difference betwean the early terrano engined model and the later one is fuel consumption, the early one returns 300 / 350 miles to a tank wereas the later one returns 500+ to a tank ,, driving taken into consideration, atb belucky 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

smithie 2,424 Posted December 11, 2014 Report Share Posted December 11, 2014 the terrano engine is a very good engine and i have seen these with over 200k on and still pulling. i think the early terrano engine was also in the london taxi Quote Link to post Share on other sites
