Hi I’m trying to find a replacement glass for n/swindow on a snug top on my 2010 Nissan navara any help would be appreciated

Hi All , I have just replaced both window winder motors in my 350Z track . On looking up all the available threads to do it , I noticed all the hassles owners have to overcome to get the window up for the repair . I was desperate , when mine jammed in the down position before I was ready to fix it , and still needed to use it . I started the motor , pulled the window switch up and banged the inside of the door panel roughly alongside where the motor is located . It jarred up the worn brushes for one last effort , and the window wound up much to my relief . I fastened two soft jaw Stanley clamps on the window to keep it from falling down again , while replacing the motor . One bit of advice I have noted on previous forums going forward , to avoid having to do the job again in the future . Is never to let the window go all the way to the bottom if you can help it , when using the window . It is a big heavy window , and needs a lot of leverage to move it resting at its lowest point . This is what prematurely wears the brushes out . That and try not to raise and lower the window with the motor off , this too stresses the brushes as the voltage is not as strong . Wish you luck , you can save a lot of money doing it yourself .

Thanks Steve for comment. Been told defo make sure you get a warranty with reconditioned engine. Just trying to find one at the moment.

hi, welcome to the club I suggest getting a smart repair done on this as will only get worse over time. not too expensive.

Hi mate, welcome to the club First thing you you need to do is check the chassis at the weak point between the cab and tub, there was a recall on these and you need to check you can get this sorted first. is the chassis got holes in it or just surface rust? if surface rust then you just need to cheam it all up and spay on dinitrol Then when that has set and hardened, get buzzweld Lanolin and spray the underside of the car a couple of times, You can spray lanolin every year, its really easy to do yourself. see the chassis snap here: https://practicalmotoring.com.au/car-news/nissan-d40-navara-caught-chassis-snap-drama/

Sorry to hear this mate. Must be a nightmare for you. You will probably need to get it stripped and repaired or a recondition engine fitted. You need to make sure its a proper company that does the work so the engine is warranted. Dealer will be too expensive probably. Once repaired, you can hand the car back (you usually can do this half way through the finance term anyway) or pay the balloon and sell the car privately.

No oil light warning came on. Had to get AA. Low oil. Timing chain slipped & now engine has had it. Need reconditioned engine. Don't know what to do as car still on finance & in Nov got a balloon payment to cover or give it back currently can't give it back as not working. Any ideas.

I own a 2008 d40 navara and there is a lot of corrosion on the chassis...I heard that nissan recall vehicles with this problem due to a shipping problem years ago where the chassis where damaged at sea. Is this something that can fixed through nissan? Thanks

Does anyone know a company who can re-code a second hand Leaf head unit to the VIN of my Nissan Leaf (2014)? I had to replace the head unit with a like for like second hand one. My local Nissan dealer is not willing to attempt to re-code it as they said it may or may not work. I have contacted numerous audio / car tunning companies in the North West but they said I should contact Nissan. Cheers - Tom

Hi, looking for information on alloy wheels and tyres ( possibly low profile) that I could put on my nissan nv 200 van that would make it individual and stand out more Thanks Paul

I’m looking for a Pathfinder for conversion into an ambulance for use in east Ukraine. It needs to be mechanically sound and structurally robust, so no MoT advisories for rust. I’m based in Birmingham, and the budget is £3-4000. If you have anything suitable please drop me an email Jerry.marsden@btinternet.com

Thanks for the welcome message. As to the models, I have always found them a better value proposition than the other Japanese makes, and that goes double for European cars. I have had other makes (briefly). Rover SD1 V8, Humber Imperial, Holden Commodores (my wife has had a series of wagons, up to her current 14 model SV6 wagon), and even an Aston Martin DB6 Vantage (for a couple of years). Thanks again, Phil

I have a rare ( very rare ) 200SX it’s not in good shape underneath . But I need to sell the car . It’s been in my family from new .

I've had my 350Z for three years now. Wonderful car in every way. However, there's a problem with the cooling fans and I'd like to replace them. Nissan OEM parts are unbelievably over-priced. An OEM fan and motor assembly is priced around £915, Can anyone suggest an aftermarket parts supplier in UK and EU? Any help would be much appreciated.

Thats not the code written at the bottom of the label (4683) ?

Best method is to connect a multimeter to the battery and look for current draw If the current increases as you remove certain fuses then that is where the power is being consumed Would first check the earth leads as common old older Nissan models for these to break and the alternator may be drawing from the battery

Hi....welcome to the Club Wow! you've had quite a few interesting Nissan models over the years, even going back to when they were Datsun ! So you're a British bike man....although strange you're not into Japanese bikes 🙂 I ride a Honda bike, mainly for the reliability, but is also great fun! Great to have you onboard!

My car was suffering from the battery draining. Fitted a new battery, problem went away for 3 months but now battery draining again. No power to instrument panel at all. Put jump leads on and starts at 1st turn of the key
