Re: Patrol Model History in South Africa
Thanks Arrie, that's interesting. Can you possibly remember what the VIN numbers look like? A lot of our Y60's have VIN numbers starting with ADNC which according to Nissan South Africa were "grey imports" as the numbers don't come up on their computer system, but the VIN plate clearly sta...

Re: New Battery
Kan seker starter wees. Kan nie regtig sien hoe dit iets anders kan wees nie. Behalwe vir die voltage drop, wat anders gebeur as jy probeer start? Draai hy enigsins? Wat jy kan probeer is om die starter te "short" deur met 'n skrooewedraaier die twee kontakte agterop to connect eerder as o...

Re: My Recent Kruger Trip, Renovations at Balule and an Interesting Bush Repair
My knowledge of electrickery is notoriously patchy, but my understanding is that the lamp is in a part of the circuit that, if broken the alternator doesn't switch on. Somewhat like the low-tension/switching circuit of a relay? Anyway, I have had as many as three voltmeters at once. The GQ has one a...

Re: My Recent Kruger Trip, Renovations at Balule and an Interesting Bush Repair
Nice to hear you had some great leopard sightings. I have also had an alternator failure that didn't trigger the warning light. Well done on finding and repairing the issue. It's probably also worth knowing that if something goes wrong with the warning light or it's circuit, the alternator won't cha...

Re: Front door electric window switches.
Ant opens them up, cleans them and re-greases them.
It's not difficult except that the plastic is quite brittle. Apparently he heats it with a hair dryer to soften them up a little.

Maxtrax - are they worth owning?
For several years now it has been my contention that Maxtrax are not worth their weight, never mind their cost. I have never seen them accomplish anything that just deflating the tires a little bit more wouldn't have done just as well. Until I watched this video: https://youtu.be/Qm-vCOT56mo?si=WPJC...
