That's me , 4.8GL model, ready for the river trip

Has anyone serviced their power steering pump? mine sound like a bearing is noisy.

I see there is a seal kit

but looks like bearing comes with the shaft:

just out of interest , the hose set I got from Terrain Taimer worked well, bottom hose comes as one hose where the Nissan is a 2 piece with connector bit. Clem if you can't find a new top hose , I do have a spare upper hose ( my old hose) you can borrow it if you need to check if it is the hose.

would also check if there is not the tiniest of crack in either ether hose or connector unit. `The engine half of the hose can take a bit of flex why not cut the radiator section 5-10mm shorter and see if it stops?

you can also try go faster shops / turbo shops, many turbo setups use the 3mm and 5 mm vacuum/pressure pipes

Do you have the electronic manual with all the circuit wirings?

suggest you start with the difflock circuit. when the diff lock is activated (normally in 4L but you can override it) the diff lock light flickers until lock, the ABs will also flicker to indicate it is in active. The bing bing normally goes when the speed is above 40km/h. maybe previous owner disco...

I've replaced most of mine with standard aftermarket actuators that you find at most Radio / alarm fitment stores. - I think it is actually only the passenger front door and the barn door that uses the original Nissan part still. I buy a kit similar to this one and only use the actuators https://www...

Are you sure it's the Aircon? if you recently replaced your windscreen or removed the panel below the windscreen then it might be the plastic pegs that holds the panel down. the left (passenger side) 3 or so clips enter the cabin and a notorious leak spot when a windscreen was replaced.
