Whitebridges Posted May 9, 2013 Report Share Posted May 9, 2013 And you were the person who told me to buy a Nissan, which I did! But mine don't rattle mate! Good luck with sorting it and good to see you about on here again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
al4x Posted May 9, 2013 Report Share Posted May 9, 2013 (edited) I would say have you checked your wallet Harnser but I'm sure a man of your means only carries notes rather than change on a more serious note have a look here:- http://www.nissan-navara.net/viewtopic.php?f=14&t=15481 Edited May 9, 2013 by al4x Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FarmerSim Posted May 9, 2013 Report Share Posted May 9, 2013 Yours is hopefully too young to have this problem, but mine developed a similar noise to the one mentioned on the nav forum, linked to, by al4x. It was the ferrous bolts holding the heat shield onto the exhaust down pipe - they had rotted away (!), and were allowing the shield to rattle like a broken cymbal! I replaced them all with stainless socket heads - M6 x 16, from memory, and the noise is gone - there are a few other head shields underneath which have benefitted from the same treatment too. Damn fine vehicle really, but a little spoilt by penny pinching oversights like this... hey ho.... i am sure you know where to look, but I can try to post a piccie if necessary.......

If it sounds like you have got tin foil rubbing against something,then it is your brake pads which will be warn down to the indicator which makes an annoying sound to make you change your pads. If the sound is a squeaking noise then i would grease your bonnet catch and put a dab of grease where the two rubber bonnet adjusters meet the body. Always worth giving a quick spray of wd40 onto the rubber joints of your front steering pinions,if your not sure spray them all. I haven't found any other squeaks and rattles on my navara,but the forum that is in the link is the place for information. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

four-wheel-drive Posted May 9, 2013 Report Share Posted May 9, 2013 I have had a couple of these things in the past one that was doing my head it turned out to be a loose lock nut under the gear knob then I had the dead fly in the air vent buzzing as the car went faster I cannot stand things like that you could try the pigeon watch solution just turn the radio up and then you will not hear it.

Harnser Posted May 10, 2013 Author Report Share Posted May 10, 2013 Problem solved . It was the bonnet stay . It was loose where it attachés to the inner wing ,a dollop of grease and all is well . Thank you for all your tips . Harnser . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
