2008 NISSAN PATROL 4.2 BAKKIE - R140k

Ja kyk as n 4.2D eers n turbo op het is dit n hele ander voertuig. Vra maar vir David, hy het nou n 4.2TD en kan getuig daarvan

Turbos only really give problems if maintenance is not done, if you service regularly and definitively have EGT gauge fitted, then they can last as long as any Patrol motor should last. If you neglect the motor..... well then you may find out how expensive a repair is.

Michael ek het n 2008 Pick Up 4.2 D 88900 KM on the clock - who can help me with a turbo?

[Michael]

Hi Clive
I see you are in the Worchester area, maybe give Frans a call as he is in Cape Town. Let me know if you dont have his number or cant find it on the forum

[ricster]

Yip... Frans will be your best bet. That man knows the 4.2 diesel motor backwards and can set it up to what you want out of it. He is in Bellville, but hey ....I'm in Jhb and I had him look at my 4.2 diesel when I was down there on holiday.

[HUNTER]

thank you - did speak to Frans he suggest a new engine - the conversion will be around 60 k .New engine will be less - but i recon the vehicle with original engine will hold more value- any suggestions?

HUBNTER -- if you swop the 4,2 N A for a 4,2 with Turbo, the value will increase.
Kyk maar Philip se rooi Patrol .. That was changed from petrol to diesel .. and it fetched a good price

[Wilkie]

Hi Hunter..if the conversion is of hi quality neat and professional it will definitely increase the value of your vehicle

[ricster]

I agree, and if done properly, that motor will last you a good 500 000km, so no need to ever by another vehicle, and not a vehicle high on the "affirmative shoppers list"..... so its a win win !!
