Well mate, early days but driving home feels more responsive and already showing slight mpg improvement,

Think i'll adjust the DTE and do an ECU reset at the weekend and see if there's any real difference :thumbright:
 
Re: What have you done to your TRUCK today ?

Good idea, maybe clean the MAF first too :thumbright:
 
Re: What have you done to your TRUCK today ?

whats a kenlow fan :scratch:
 
Re: What have you done to your TRUCK today ?

Lol....
Electric fan Paul, every bhp hungry nutter fitted them years ago.
A viscous fan uses engine power up, so bhp down.. No good for boy racers :lol:
 
Re: What have you done to your TRUCK today ?

I'd not alter anything yet Steve, perhaps give it a week or two an then ya should get used to it and get mpg updates.
Then do maf, ecu etc an see if anymore improvements :D

What mpg were you getting around town Steve ???
Think yours is a 2007 euro4 auto???
Yes Euro 4 auto Martin.

Before the DTE i was getting around 21 mpg, then with DTE depending on setting around 23mpg, then blanked EGR and saw 27mpg :shock: :thumbright: :thumbright: but dropped back to 23mpg after about a week.

Driving home last night i saw around 25mpg so although i'm not getting too excited there is already improvement.

Did manage 33mpg on a 125mile run at the weekend sticking to 68 mph, which was difficult :lol:

Boy would i love a V6! :thumbright:
 
Re: What have you done to your TRUCK today ?

Yeh, me an my business partner were discussing new Navs yesterday, can't justify the money though, why change my faultless d40.. :dunno
V6 is without doubt all I'd swap it for, but do I want the problems with the newer Navs?
Strikes me apart from the maybe timing chain issue the 2007 Navara is about as good as the d40 gets. :fingersx
The old girl only has 37000 on it, think I'll keep my brass and carry on praying :lol:

Hi,
I have loaded it up with camping kit for a trip to Cornwall at the weekend. I will be supervising a bunch of Air Cadets doing the Residential section of their Gold Duke of Edinburgh's Award at an archaeological dig near Camelford.

T cut is the way to brighten the old lense up :thumbright:
It removes all the little scratches and dull plastic :thumbleft:
 
Re: What have you done to your TRUCK today ?

I did hear that toothpaste or brown sauce might have the same effect.
all I know is, it will involve some serious elbow grease.
