Nissan Patrol 4x4 (Africa)

Baie dankie Pieter, dis jammer dis so bleddie ver!
Ek weet ook nie waar sit mens hom in nie?

After all the years with the Patrol doing 2 - 3000 km per year, I decided to check the ATF in the gearbox, but how? Apparently you need to buy a dipstick to stick in where?
Any advice?

Is it normal for the cruise control of the 4.8 Auto to disengage when the selector is moved to the manual position, in other words, I cannot use the cruise control when driving in manual mode?

This tyre was on my spare on the Patrol and is like brand new. I replaced all my tyres including the spare with 265/70 R17.
R1000

Thanks!

The only person I know your side is Frans Fourie. If he doesn't know then nobody will know :biggrin: :biggrin: . Let me know if you want his number :thumbup: Hi Cedric I'll appreciate it if you could give me Frans' contact details. It seems as if it is about two years since he has last been active ...

Hi Kevin
Not yet, the Patrol is mainly the wife's car and is actually seldomly used. I would probably wait till I want to go somewhere and then hastily do something.

I do not use the Patrol often off road. About two years ago I did a Namib trip and found that on pulling hard a strange cluck sound comes from the front drive train from time to time. However, it is not associated with a feeling on the steering or anything, just the sound. Other Patrol drivers told ...
