    Ask Smithy Xtra Navara faulty timing chains

    Nissan Nissan Advice Nissan Navara Nissan Navara Advice Nissan Navara 2006
    I have just purchased a 2006 D40 Nissan Navara ST-X and I have since read numerous reports about the timing chain failing. What do you now about this fault or any other mechanical problem associated with this model?

    Our Nissan specialist, Jerry Newman, says the only timing chain failures he has had to repair on the Navara are because of poor maintenance, mostly because the oil hasn’t been changed, and the tensioner has failed leading to the failure of the guide and the chain. It’s vital to keep up the maintenance.
