This time its a 02 Navara crew cab in Ireland, turns out to be the third con rod cracked and crank scored bad, part of the shell is gone up into the con rod crack, at least the block and piston is OK, also the sump cracked when breaking the sump seal. Engineer workshop said new crank.con rods,shells can be supplied for about €1700+vat and Nissan can supply same for €2000 more and sump cover for 500 plus whatever labor will cost. Sent Nissan Ireland an email asking what way I would go about getting compensation as this is a known fault in this model and never got reply asked local dealer what about comp as I heard this is a common fault and they never heard of this happening before, they said I was wasting my time looking for anything. The engineering workshop was able to tell me which con rod was gone and what was wrong as they had replaced same in other engines. what step will I take next?.
