Simoman 110 Posted March 19, 2009 Report Share Posted March 19, 2009 I have a 2002 D22 and at the weekend it started to cough and splutter when around 3,000rpm, I took it to my mates garage this week and he changed the fuel filter but its even worse and coughs and splutters that bad that I can't drive it anymore. My mates navara had a simlilar problem and he changed the injectors but this made no difference so he thinks the problem is the fuel filter, any ideas anyone please????

matt11 0 Posted March 19, 2009 Report Share Posted March 19, 2009 simoman they suffer with a few problems,try unplugging the mass air flow senser on the intake if it improves change the senser,also they have a gear/neutral switch in the gear box which goes basically tellf the module when the cars in a gear so you cant over rev it in neutral even a manual.

jasper65 6 Posted March 25, 2009 Report Share Posted March 25, 2009 see if you can get the throttle sensor checked before it goes in, may be worth a try definitely worth a look simo!! when mine went tits up and cutting out a few people mentioned they had problems with the throttle sensor. thankfully mine was the fuel filter but it needed to be bled through a fair bit to get it running again on all four.... keep us posted what the outcome is sime! I certainly would be interested in what the Nissan boys make of it.... Also try and cover up them stains on your passenger seat mate before you let them have it .... atb Jasp Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Let them tell you what's wrong, you don't have to let them do the work! Haven't you found a friendly independant to work for you? Am dead lucky with my LR, one of the Technicians from the main dealers does mine after hours, he's a bit of a TD5 loon and doesn't charge the earth, even keeps his LR overalls to do the work!

Your right Aaron, my mate had a look but wasn't sure if it was the fuel pump, but I didn't want to spend a grand and find that wasn't the problem, fingers crossed.........
