[@fatmanoverlanding]

I agree with Gary's reasoning to fix it and retain the engine. Since after this repairs, the engine is almost fully refreshed, and have it regularly serviced, it should be reliable for another 200k kms. Another great work by Burto. Good one gents. 👍

While the ZD won't spin all 4 wheels on bitumen, it's good enough to take the Patrol anywhere. The 200k long motor is just fine, now the fuel system is new, and all the hoses and manifold are new. There's no point at all considering an engine swap. But you've missed putting on a fuel pre filter to help stop shit fuel getting through.

[@einfelder8262]

!6 years old, 200,000ks, running pretty well until some crap fuel took out the injectors. Nothing to complain about, in my view. Old crusty hoses should have been routinely replaced, the intercooler wasn't bad for 16 years (mine was leaking at 2000ks). Fuel pump still good but leaking, and turbo good. Warped exhaust manifold common on many engines not just the ZD. Now that it's got all new bits it will go for a long time in Gary's hands, and as Burto admitted it will easily keep up with the TDs (everyone knows that to be true, but TD owners find it hard to admit :) )

[@nom_ben_livingthedream]

Hey boys, There is one more thing you should definitely check out. Take off the EGR valve and see if the flap is still attached. They have been an issue with zd30 engine and can cause many misdiagnosis problems. I’ve got a video on my KZbin channel that shows the problem. I went through exactly the same problem as you guys have been experiencing. I replaced every like you including also the starter motor too eventually discovering it was the Egr valve all along. Happy to help in anyway way boys.

[@4WheelingInNSW]

I think the EGR flap on this is gone due to the catch can being installed, looks like it’s had an EGR delete done at some stage. I think that’s why Burto was staring at it strangely 🤣

Burto, what a legend type of friend to have. Keep the 3 litre, figure it out and make the best of it, there are so many going around with high klms unopened. The egr is a funny thing ,everyone advised me to to blank mine off, i did for a number of years, the performance over all was better, quicker spool up rate, no turbo lag etc .......but when towing up long steep ranges the water temps would sky rocket, i kept reading about the subject and took it back to standard, the engine temps dropped by 10 degrees!, back to normal operating range!

For all those asking about the EGR flap missing, I would think it’s gone ( hence why Burto was looking at it strangely ) as many people remove the EGR / do EGR deletes etc in conjunction with the catch can so they have less issues with soot going back through the engine. Maybe this had been done previously by last owner 🤷‍♂️

[@rourkekilner]

Alot of people either don't know about blocking egr, don't have the knowledge or tools to block the egr, or too lazy to block the egr. Just because it has a catch can doesn't mean egr has been blocked🤷‍♂️

As the owner of a gq td42 and a gu French 3.0 diesel, and after a complete reconditioned engine (after endless problems) fuel pump the works, it still had constant problems. Meanwhile the td42 has had nothing spent on it except general maintenance + 1 alternator, @ nearly 700000 ks one owner before me.. I still breath a sigh of relief I sold the gu. In saying that, there are some people who say they understand the zd and know everything that goes wrong with them and how best in making them reliable. At the end of the day for me' the td was much simpler and you only get a certain amount of money in your life. Will be interested to see how long before next issue with it. On the French the d23 nav motor is meant to be reliable going back in Europe well before it's arrival in Australia. Some with 800k on them. But in saying this I have learnt Nissan and Mercedes actually took the reins in designing this engine, hopefully renault learnt something about diesel design as they ok with petrol being involved in F1.

Not awesome but hardly terrible. As a daily its 17-18 but you get that. The only mechanical mod is changed diff gears as the factory 3.5 are too high and previous owner put 85% gears in transfer.

[@wallafied]

Change the banjo bolt out of the common rail with a normal bolt which overrides the pressure relief valve if it’s leaking and bypassing. Costs pretty much nothing and starts way better because the computer won’t let the injectors fire without the minimum pressure in the common rail. I did it years ago and has never been an issue as the fuel pump has a pressure relief anyway. They are a awesome engine once you set them up right and they can make huge power reliably if you want
