Hi

I have a 52 plate Navara, when driving between 2000 - 3000 revs i have a stuttering/chugging in the acceleration. I am not sure if this is a turbo problem or a fuel pump/injecter problem. Can anyone help me with this??

I had it in the garage last week and they said it could be a fuel pump problem and it would cost about £1100 to sort out??

When driving (carefully) under 2000 revs it drives fine and i thought if it was a fuel pump/injecter problem this would happen all the time... thats what brought me onto the turbo. Dont know when the turbo kicks in but if its after 2000 revs this could be what it is as it feels a bit like turbo lagging.

Any advice would help as not sure where to go next!

is this definetly the problem... i'd like to think it is something simple and not something that will cost me £1100!!

would this problem also cause the engine warning light to occasionally come on?

It comes on very rarely then when i turn ignition off and back on it goes

Ok thanks pd and woz... i will try these things out.

I wes tested it today and it only seems to happen in 3rd, 4th and 5th. I will try and look into which engine it is... where would i find this info?

Yeah woz i tried it today and pushing the lever to the side did cure the problem so i think it is the NPS, just need to try and get hold of one (Nissan says out of stock)

Also i am flat out with work right upto xmas... will this problem do more damage to the truck if i keep driving it and fix the problem at or after xmas?

Thanks for all your help... so glad i dont have to shell out for a new fuel pump!
